00:00:22,399 --> 00:00:30,199
Hey everybody, It's Tuesday, August
fifteenth, twenty twenty three. Welcome to

2
00:00:30,239 --> 00:00:35,920
the Giant Bomb Cast powered by Ennius
to episode eight hundred and two. Welcome

3
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:41,320
to uh, you know, God's
favorite gaming podcast. That's right, we

4
00:00:41,799 --> 00:00:48,039
finally gained that distinction. I'm your
host, jen Ochoa. I'll be the

5
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:52,960
blue turtle that some people have problems
with, but you gotta keep me around

6
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,479
anyway, because I keep the pipes
running, uh, and I'm just chilling

7
00:00:56,799 --> 00:01:00,799
in the sewers. We got co
Captain of the Ship X newsman, our

8
00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:03,840
own April O'Neil, and you know
you'd love to see him in a yellow

9
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,879
jumpsuit, Jeff Grub. I mean
for audio listeners, who's to say I'm

10
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,560
not already wearing one? And just
shout out to the Pope for that,

11
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,079
for that honor, by the way, I really appreciate it. Yes,

12
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:15,799
yes, we didn't speci that.
We didn't specify which god it could be

13
00:01:17,359 --> 00:01:21,319
one or all of them? You
know. Yes, Shiva the Destroyer of

14
00:01:21,359 --> 00:01:26,159
Worlds with Oppenheimer picked us next.
Ess actually the only thing they agree on,

15
00:01:26,519 --> 00:01:32,519
yes exactly. I'm gonna ask if
we could put I'm gonna ask him

16
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,760
if we can put this on a
shirt. He'll give me a face.

17
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:38,519
It was like, I don't know, dad, but we'll do it anyway.

18
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:46,680
Anyway. Oh, that's so good. We'll do it anyway. The

19
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,640
the Casey Jones of the team,
Jeff Backlar, Hey, that's me.

20
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:57,920
Casey Jones is my spirit animal.
I'm really proud for that comparison, So

21
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,879
thank you, Jan. He likes
hockey. You like hockey, you know,

22
00:02:01,239 --> 00:02:04,959
well, I'm not. I'm not
sure if he likes hockey. He

23
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:07,520
just prefers a stick at the weapons
in his toolbox. Yeah, in his

24
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:13,680
golf bag, I believe is how
he fashions his collection of weapons. But

25
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:19,080
I have a really deep cut about
Casey Jones and Ninja turtles. But let's

26
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,280
introduce our special guest before we get
to it. All right, we have

27
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:27,960
our dearest friend, our special friend, the Outback Steakhouse of Games Media,

28
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:34,719
Bailey Byers. Thank you so much. I'm glad that that one was me.

29
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,360
That's great. It had to be. There was no one. Oh

30
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:43,800
look at that proof. Jeff mccars
holding a Casey Jones mask in a box

31
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,240
right now. Yeah, you're supposed
to take this out. I would imagine

32
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:50,240
at some point, but not just
to scare your children at night when you

33
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,120
go to visit them. Yeah,
imagine just waking up your child wearing this

34
00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:57,280
mask and nothing else exactly like,
we gotta go, we gotta go,

35
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,199
get into the woods. We're going. Yeah, that's that's you know how

36
00:03:00,199 --> 00:03:02,919
my family treated me? For sure? What actually, I take the outback

37
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,879
steakhouse of games media. I take
that back, Bailey. I'm sorry you

38
00:03:07,159 --> 00:03:10,080
are. I have never even been
to Australia. To be fair, nither

39
00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:16,159
has out back. That's true.
Okay, next time in La. Next

40
00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:20,719
time when we're in La, not
only do we have to go to Bukadibepo

41
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,879
to get a fun photo together,
but we also have to go to an

42
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:30,080
outback steakhouse. Let's go. I'm
so excited back that much blooming onion.

43
00:03:30,479 --> 00:03:34,919
But Bailey, as the you know, as as a site's dearest friend,

44
00:03:34,919 --> 00:03:38,000
you are also my my nemesis.
So I think you are like the shredder

45
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,560
of a giant bomb. I'll take
it. Yeah that's fair. Yeah,

46
00:03:43,039 --> 00:03:45,759
yeah, it works for me here
Leonardo and she shredded. That makes a

47
00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:49,240
lot of sense. The way you
guys were just ribbing each other, cussing

48
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:54,639
each other, out, yeah,
exactly, throwing stuff on the side as

49
00:03:54,719 --> 00:03:59,000
soon as the cameras are off and
everything. The turtles do need to curse

50
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,919
more. I gotta say, for
a bunch of fourteen to sixteen year olds,

51
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,120
they should be dropping like MF for
a bunch more than they do for

52
00:04:05,199 --> 00:04:10,240
the good kids. The problem is
that they would say like the bad ones,

53
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,960
Okay, they would say the R
word and stuff we can't have that

54
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,399
they would fourteen year old I don't
think fourteen year olds say that now.

55
00:04:17,879 --> 00:04:20,319
I hope so, I hope that
the people I see say that on the

56
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:25,279
on the internet are actually like forty
five. That that's something makes me feel

57
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,920
a lot better than if they're fourteen. Not not to relitigate old turtle talk

58
00:04:28,959 --> 00:04:31,319
and old stuff that Jeff Backlar has
odd opinions on. But Bailey, do

59
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:38,639
you see Splinter as the turtles as
father in the new movie? Yes?

60
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:46,240
Wait, go on, well no, no, Maybe Bailey's got some points.

61
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,199
Maybe Bailey's done a lot of our
own research. Do you guys you

62
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,360
want to hear from George from Florida
again? Because I don't I don't know

63
00:04:51,399 --> 00:04:58,240
how how to say this. I
don't have an emotional association with the eighties

64
00:04:58,319 --> 00:05:02,079
Turtles. That was just not something
I grew up on if I didn't have

65
00:05:02,079 --> 00:05:05,720
the VHS tape. So, as
far as I'm concerned, the new movie

66
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:13,279
is all that matters with Turtles and
so wait, so if they had the

67
00:05:13,319 --> 00:05:17,480
same dynamic in the cartoon, would
you then consider Splinter to be their father?

68
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:25,920
It's the same dynamic in the cartoon
Dad, He's he's got dad vibes

69
00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:30,399
in the Roguan movie than he did
in the cartoons. From my position,

70
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,680
I think he was more of like
a roommate in the in the in the

71
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:39,879
cartoons, right, it's more like
a rat roommate if you or he's like

72
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:44,720
an unlockable character in the video game
you're playing. Like in the movie,

73
00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:47,240
he's a dad, and he's a
good He's such a dad. Oh my

74
00:05:47,319 --> 00:05:51,399
god. I just he's hilarious,
probably the funniest one in the movie too.

75
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,439
So good, Yeah, so good? Yeah? Where was Casey Jones?

76
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,839
I just like to say, hey, I've been asking where is Keeno

77
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,399
been since Tim and T two?
Secret of the Us? All right,

78
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,120
right, Jan, Look, as
much as I love Keino, I kind

79
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:13,800
of think if we're if we're like
doing a tier of like missing cameos start

80
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,959
from there's a clear number one,
but that kind of guts resolved a little

81
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:25,439
Japanese kid from three three. I've
only seen three ones. Yoshi everyone's favorite

82
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,040
character, or Yojimbo the rabbit.
Huh, now that would be cool.

83
00:06:30,399 --> 00:06:34,480
I would take that. Uh.
I forgot where we're going. I apologize.

84
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,839
I was gonna make a weird deep
cut comparison. Please please cut away,

85
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,319
cut away. So I'm a big
cowboy bebop expert, as everyone knows.

86
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,360
Now, it's amazing. It's amazing. I've seen seven episodes of it,

87
00:06:47,399 --> 00:06:51,959
and it's amazing. It's totally redefined
who I am as a person recently,

88
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:58,480
live my life by that anime.
He's gonna be insufferable when he finally

89
00:06:58,519 --> 00:07:01,519
watches FOULI Coolie, but I can't
wait. That's going to change him in

90
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,600
a way that I don't anime is
that? Yes? Whatever, it doesn't.

91
00:07:05,879 --> 00:07:11,000
It's like four episodes, Okay,
back, he's already changed though.

92
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,920
Once he eventually watches Full Metal Alchemist
Brotherhood and then he meets Roy Mustang,

93
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,120
He's going to be changed as soon
as he gets into reviews Starlight. It's

94
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,839
all over for you. Guys are
all bringing up that such a deep cut

95
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:28,519
that I'm confident none of you three. I just politely place this podcast.

96
00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:32,199
Yeah, the funny thing about Cowboy
Bebop is that I was afforded every opportunity

97
00:07:32,279 --> 00:07:38,360
as a college student in like two
thousand to two. Time lines up so

98
00:07:38,439 --> 00:07:41,879
much with you should have just been
like legally required to watch adult swim at

99
00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:44,920
that time, Like you weren't.
It's weird, right, Like I was

100
00:07:44,959 --> 00:07:48,000
watching Aquitine, I was watching Sea
Lab, I was watching Harvey Birdman,

101
00:07:48,079 --> 00:07:50,480
I was watching all the things.
And then as soon as they were like,

102
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,360
yo, it's two unami time,
I was like, I don't like

103
00:07:54,519 --> 00:07:58,120
anime. I'm twenty. Yeah,
Like if that, if you would,

104
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,639
if you would stuck around, like
if you were just so how you didn't

105
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,079
turn the channel and that first episode
Cowboy Beboy started up, I would have

106
00:08:03,079 --> 00:08:07,279
been not saying that this autobiographical but
it is. But like you're like you

107
00:08:07,279 --> 00:08:09,680
would not be able to look away, Like so you still missed it.

108
00:08:09,839 --> 00:08:11,240
I'm just no, I'm a piece
of shit, Jeff. I'm old enough.

109
00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:15,959
I'm an adult enough to admit it
this point. Thank you. As

110
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,639
long as we can all agree that
I am a piece of shit. I

111
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,360
was into Eon Flux back then.
I was I, which is not really

112
00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:26,240
necessary, Like no, but you
know it's got the same tone totally.

113
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:31,959
It's it's insane. It's so insane. Anyway, I've seen seven or episodes

114
00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:37,840
of Cowboy Bebob, therefore an expert, and I recently watched the episode about

115
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,519
VT, the character VT. If
I don't know if you're aware, but

116
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:50,440
watching that episode yesterday and and then
thinking about the turtles recently, VT gave

117
00:08:50,519 --> 00:09:00,120
off total Raphael nineteen ninety ninja turtle
vibes, like the big trench code in

118
00:09:00,159 --> 00:09:05,480
the hat Tracy though, what's that? Isn't that just Dick Tracy? Who?

119
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:11,799
Raphael Big? I don't think he
was going for a Dick Tracy.

120
00:09:11,879 --> 00:09:16,519
Thing's got like a yellow Maybe maybe
Casey Jones made a Dick Tracy joke,

121
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,559
Adams, Yeah, maybe maybe.
Uh there's something about like big trench code,

122
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,279
like you like you're hiding a turtle
shell going out in camouflage. It's

123
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:30,720
like I just felt VT, and
uh, you know out at night camouflage

124
00:09:30,759 --> 00:09:33,840
fail. We're exuding the same energy
in a big way. So if anyone

125
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,960
can appreciate that, comparison. She's
the truck driver, the space truck driver,

126
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:46,320
right yeah, and she hates bounty
hunters. She hates them. Campra's

127
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:52,639
just dead Spikes biagle Chi right yeah. And did you guys play Neon White

128
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,039
at all when it came out?
Oh? Yeah, God, I love

129
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,440
that. I love that. Just
Spike from Cowboy Bebop talk to you about

130
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:05,120
angels and demons more than usual because
he's talked about it a lot, a

131
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,960
lot a lot. Yes, anytime
he shows up anywhere, I'm very excited.

132
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,440
Uh you know, while we're still
kind of tangentially talking about the turtles.

133
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,679
I don't know what compelled me to
watch this, but I wound up

134
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:20,840
watching the Michael Bay Turtle movies.
Oh there, they they made choices in

135
00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:24,000
those films. Man, that's like
such a weird thing that you just Michael

136
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,120
Bay's turtles move like, yeah,
he did that while he was in his

137
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:31,559
Transformers era that lasted forever. He
also did teenage Mutant Ja Turtles movies,

138
00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:37,639
but like he produced them. Think
about those? Hey, yeah yeah,

139
00:10:37,639 --> 00:10:39,639
but I do you think they have
his signature on it? Would you believe

140
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:46,360
me? Or I forgot this?
Tony Schalub is splinter. Oh that's that's

141
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:54,200
kind of cool. I love Tony
schalub O guy rules. I'm might have

142
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,360
predicted that you love Tony schalub I
like, come on, missus mazel dude,

143
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,879
he's so good. I just like
I could tell five other things before

144
00:11:01,879 --> 00:11:05,440
that, bail, you got a
problem with missus masl what's happening? Not

145
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,600
a fan? Okay, let's get
into this before we get into games,

146
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,080
because there's not a lot of games. Okay, that's okay. I'm not

147
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:18,240
here to be a TV critic.
Okay, all right, but we can

148
00:11:18,279 --> 00:11:24,799
all agree that we like Tony Shaloup. Yeah yeah, Bailey, clearly Tony

149
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,440
Galaxy Quest one of the best performances
ever in a movie. He's the best.

150
00:11:28,879 --> 00:11:33,320
Just fantastic stuff. An alien.
I like him a lot. In

151
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,279
monk Uh, here's the Google doc. I almost forgot to do this,

152
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,039
shouts out, even send it to
me before. Oh no, I'm talking

153
00:11:43,039 --> 00:11:48,879
about the bad Google doc. This
is just send it. I'm gonna put

154
00:11:48,919 --> 00:11:52,279
in the chat for us right here. Wait. Okay, okay, I

155
00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:54,919
was like, grub be careful,
no no, no, no, no,

156
00:11:54,159 --> 00:12:09,279
our chat yep okay, pooh uh
right, let's talk about video games

157
00:12:11,399 --> 00:12:16,759
can't type I am, and I
was like, Man, she's gonna get

158
00:12:16,759 --> 00:12:20,759
there. Eventually, she'll get there. Uh. You can't play video games

159
00:12:22,039 --> 00:12:24,960
most of the time unless you're looking
at them on a TV or a monitor.

160
00:12:26,039 --> 00:12:28,919
But Jeff Backlar, you got a
portable monitor. Listen to this.

161
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,200
I feel like I've done something illegal. And I kind of went back and

162
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,360
forth. I'm like, should I
even talk about this on the show,

163
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,440
because once I once I start talking
about this, I feel like I'm gonna

164
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,600
be in trouble. Well I'm not
gonna be in trouble, but maybe the

165
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,440
thing that I'm using this for will
break. Oh my god, look at

166
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:52,559
grub monitor. Did you are we
are we monitor buds? Yeah, let's

167
00:12:52,799 --> 00:12:56,480
listen. Listen, listen. I
have a trip coming up, a couple

168
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,279
of plane rides in my future.
Oh you got the laughy leck one.

169
00:13:00,639 --> 00:13:05,480
Yeah, it sounds like a Norris
God if I Kia only knew in the

170
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,240
nineties that all of its funny names
were about to be exploded out by a

171
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,879
website called Amazon dot com. Hey, hey, back, I could tell

172
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:20,120
that we're homeowners making the ikea job. Yeah, that that lands with you

173
00:13:20,159 --> 00:13:26,600
two, right, Baylor? Totally? Yeah, I love sing love.

174
00:13:26,639 --> 00:13:35,720
It's like mortgage. It's forty whole
dollars the interest rates. I'm gonna refinance

175
00:13:35,799 --> 00:13:39,720
this in a couple of years.
No, it's a bad time to refine.

176
00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:48,679
What are you talking about? Mow
the lawn. I have the hoss.

177
00:13:48,759 --> 00:13:50,960
I have to have a lawn,
even though we're in a drought.

178
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:58,480
Can you say, hoaesome? Good
job, that's really good. We haven't

179
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:01,879
told out podcast points in a while, but Bailey gets them all today for

180
00:14:01,879 --> 00:14:05,679
sure, and I'm back like that, You're not allowed to do that.

181
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:11,600
I'm ship twice today. Listen.
I'm going to deduct twenty to six.

182
00:14:11,799 --> 00:14:16,639
I can, oh can? I
can't afford that chap that puts me in

183
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,480
the red transferring that balance to Bailey's
balance. Wow, I have to pay

184
00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:26,919
off this podcast negative balance. I
bought a I bought a portable monitor for

185
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:33,159
a couple of plane rides because my
little one and I are through the fourth

186
00:14:33,159 --> 00:14:37,840
Temple in Zelda and now want to
continue playing on our trip because there's you

187
00:14:37,879 --> 00:14:39,559
know, who knows how many hundreds
of hours left in this game, and

188
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,639
I'm like, oh, we'll just
play this on the plane. I'm like,

189
00:14:41,639 --> 00:14:43,679
oh, wait, no, we
won't because the screen on the switch

190
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,919
is too small to play with two
people. It's insane. I realize people

191
00:14:46,919 --> 00:14:50,960
do it on rooftops, do it
whatever, they do it, but I

192
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,960
don't want to be that guy.
So I bought a portable monitor, thinking

193
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,600
like, oh, I'll just figure
a way to like Jerry rig it together.

194
00:14:58,639 --> 00:15:03,440
And that's that, you guys.
I thought, like USB out USBC

195
00:15:03,639 --> 00:15:09,440
out video on the switch was like
this very proprietary coveted thing. I just

196
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,159
hooked it up to this monitor and
it worked with the with the USBC cable

197
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:18,720
that came with the monitor, and
it worked like directly into the switch.

198
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,080
Dude, I can demo for you
right now if you want to see it,

199
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,000
like it doesn't want to see it, it's insane. It just works.

200
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:31,879
Wait okay, the raw naked port
from the Raw Dog, the one

201
00:15:31,919 --> 00:15:35,840
that came with the monitor, and
it just worked. No guess, wait,

202
00:15:35,919 --> 00:15:39,960
no doc like no dock, no
sands doc. Okay, I gotta

203
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,200
see this then. Actually, yes, that's if you can't do it for

204
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:48,000
scientific purposes, well, I'll larrate
the whole thing for audio. You guys,

205
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,519
got a vamp for a second while
I set this up. Guess what

206
00:15:50,639 --> 00:15:54,960
also works the steam deck. Well, yeah, that that steam deck does

207
00:15:56,039 --> 00:15:58,000
make sense. But that's good.
That's good. Yeah, because you guys

208
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:58,960
are gonna have Yeah, that's a
good thing. Yeah, there's portal monitor.

209
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:00,679
It makes a lot of sense when
you start getting a lot of those

210
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:06,519
devices. I feel like I'm about
to really upset companies right now. The

211
00:16:06,559 --> 00:16:10,159
steam deck is like Gabe does,
I don't care. I'm not worried about

212
00:16:10,159 --> 00:16:12,240
them. I'm worried about the company
that you should worry about it. Yeah.

213
00:16:15,159 --> 00:16:18,000
Yeah, well I hear you vamp. I'll show you the thing.

214
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:23,320
Okay, this crew vamping, that's
that's going to be so difficult. I

215
00:16:23,399 --> 00:16:27,399
do want like I felt the DOC
was necessary for that stuff because I guess

216
00:16:27,399 --> 00:16:30,720
maybe they just turn it off for
the switch light and that's what I'm thinking

217
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,080
of. So maybe that does make
some sense. But I haven't feel the

218
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,440
DOC is just so that it can
like stand up and have a little dignity.

219
00:16:37,519 --> 00:16:41,120
But you can really just plug it
in anywhere. Yeah, well,

220
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,879
I mean yes, I like,
I feel like you couldn't take an hdm

221
00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:48,519
I or an USBC to HD my
chord and plug it into a TV.

222
00:16:48,639 --> 00:16:51,759
But I think I must be wrong. Then I guess so yeah, I'm

223
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,159
always confused, right because like USBC
can like be thunder can be lightning sometimes

224
00:16:56,279 --> 00:16:59,960
right, it can. It can
be so many things were so many.

225
00:17:00,039 --> 00:17:03,160
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, here I have something more upsetting out

226
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:11,480
back steakhouses calling their appetizers aussetize aussey
Tizers ausseatizers. Come on, guys,

227
00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:17,680
they just ran out of jokes.
You're like, now they did that thing

228
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:22,240
where like you write the intrasection last, so they like did the rest of

229
00:17:22,279 --> 00:17:25,599
the men either, like great great
banger after banger, and then they got

230
00:17:25,599 --> 00:17:27,160
to the appetizers, are like,
fuck, what do we do here?

231
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,680
Aussi Tizers? There, We're done? All right, I'm gonna take a

232
00:17:30,759 --> 00:17:34,359
joke and then I want Australian listeners
to write in and tell me if I

233
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,720
need to stop making these jokes.
Ausey Tizers sounds like the fight you get

234
00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:41,839
in before your fight. Like it
sounds like you're you're gonna get your real

235
00:17:41,839 --> 00:17:45,240
fight in a second, but the
aussee tizer, you're gonna have the little

236
00:17:45,279 --> 00:17:48,400
fight before the big fights. How
can that be offensive? What is that?

237
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,599
Ending? It's more offensive that you
like apologize to Australian people before making

238
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:57,160
the joke. Listen, do they
care? Okay, as you can see

239
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:02,839
my switch hook up in the with
the bottom USBC. Okay, here's the

240
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,599
other end. I'm gonna plug it
in. Okay. Now, is this

241
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,559
monitor drawing from the switch? This
this power? What do you mean?

242
00:18:12,839 --> 00:18:18,079
No, it's except so there it
is. Wow, look at that.

243
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,839
Okay, switch, the switch must
be so yeah, the switch because the

244
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,000
monitor does have a power. I
am powering the monitor, right, So

245
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:32,960
that's what I think. But I
think it will still work if I take

246
00:18:33,039 --> 00:18:37,039
the plug out. Yeah, because
that's the will Nope, it does not.

247
00:18:37,839 --> 00:18:44,880
That's because it needs power. It
does. Oh no, I don't

248
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,960
think we had to do it had
to get Look it's but it's like there's

249
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,319
no power on it right now,
and it's getting power somehow because it's displaying

250
00:18:51,319 --> 00:18:53,720
the no signal. Oh yeah yeah, oh yeah, it might be drawing

251
00:18:53,759 --> 00:18:57,519
power, drawing like like just sipping
a little bit. It does run by

252
00:18:57,559 --> 00:19:00,960
itself with the steam deck. So
like if you just plugged the steam deck

253
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,559
puts out enough power, I'd try
to make yesterday. Yeah where is running?

254
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,359
But yeah yeah, port of the
monitors don't usually have batteries, right

255
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,279
because mine doesn't like that would be
kind of crazy. I would, Yeah,

256
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,240
you would need something pretty serious.
But yeah, isn't that crazy cool?

257
00:19:15,319 --> 00:19:18,599
Yeah, isn't that? It's fantastic. It's like, why is that

258
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,799
working? Are you worried about?
Like there was a worried about like bricking

259
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:26,079
switches early on by using bad docks, that seems to have mostly gone away.

260
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:27,680
I mean at this point, who
cares. You're right, they're like,

261
00:19:27,759 --> 00:19:32,000
yeah, I got like four switches
in this house somewhere. I could

262
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,960
just fix an old one or something. Yes, you know, all right

263
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,960
with house money at this point.
Fantastic, fantastic. Well, speaking about

264
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:44,799
switch games, mister Grub sounds like
and it reads like on this document here

265
00:19:45,079 --> 00:19:48,480
that you beat Pickman four, I'd
beat Pickman four. Yeah, I uh,

266
00:19:49,279 --> 00:19:55,680
well I got credits like twenty hours
ago. So that's this game is

267
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:56,559
making me like wonder, Like,
man, what is he even beating a

268
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,720
game? Mean anymore? But I
got credits twenty hours ago. There's a

269
00:20:00,759 --> 00:20:04,640
ton to do after that. Most
of it, like it surprisingly keeps a

270
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,279
lot of momentum even though you've mostly
finished up with the like, oh,

271
00:20:08,319 --> 00:20:11,640
I'm gonna get a new thing that
makes me more powerful. Or it makes

272
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,920
my characters able to do more or
finding new pickman. By then you're gonna

273
00:20:15,039 --> 00:20:18,559
found all the pickmen. But like
things like finding their onion, which enables

274
00:20:18,599 --> 00:20:21,880
you to grow these pickmen without just
finding them out in the wild, something

275
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,519
that for some of these more rare
pigments around time. Yes, so like

276
00:20:25,559 --> 00:20:29,279
that like is still that was encouraging
me to keep exploring the world, Like

277
00:20:29,319 --> 00:20:32,640
I'll just go get all the onions. I'll just set the little doggie to

278
00:20:32,839 --> 00:20:34,960
sniff out onions every time we get
to a new level, and then I'll

279
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,799
just go get those. And a
lot of the ones I was finding are

280
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:40,880
the flow licks. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yes, I was finding

281
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,599
the flow licks, and that means
you can have more pickmen in the world.

282
00:20:42,799 --> 00:20:45,279
But that caps at a hundred,
so it's like at a certain point

283
00:20:45,319 --> 00:20:48,880
that just gives you like some power
ups and stuff not actually not very useful

284
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,599
at a certain point, and I
was like, man, where's the white

285
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,559
onion? And as I was like
exploring for it, I discovered the final

286
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,960
the final stage, which is like
this twenty level cave that you go through

287
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,359
and it's like you're using all your
pickmen in really interesting ways and I really

288
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:07,599
loved everything up until about the last
boss. The last boss is fine.

289
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,000
The boss fights in this game are
not really why I'm here. It's like

290
00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:15,079
the exploration is really good. The
sense of progression is really good, like

291
00:21:15,279 --> 00:21:19,839
as the loop is fantastic, just
being a bunch of little guys around like

292
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,079
Boston little and like getting more little
guys so I could do even more the

293
00:21:23,079 --> 00:21:26,440
next day, Like so oh,
that was a really good productive day.

294
00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:29,119
Now tomorrow I know I could do
even more. That's what works for me.

295
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,960
The boss fights are like, yeah, mostly you're trying to get them

296
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,559
over as quickly as possible by just
ramming your dog into him and sitting all

297
00:21:34,559 --> 00:21:38,200
one hundred pickmen to attack him at
the same time. And that's kind of

298
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,839
how the last boss fight works as
well, except for it has phases and

299
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:48,240
I was not prepared with the correct
pickmen and the game doesn't spell out that

300
00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:51,640
you needed to bring in a certain
pickmen, like I didn't have any blue,

301
00:21:51,799 --> 00:21:53,960
yellow, or red pickman because the
stage is like here, so let's

302
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,240
just like have you auto select the
pickmen you're gonna bring with you, And

303
00:21:57,599 --> 00:22:00,400
it didn't give me any of those, and I was like, that's fine,

304
00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:02,599
I'm sure I don't need him,
because this has been pretty handy so

305
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,240
far when the game was just like
just bring these. So I go through

306
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,680
all the twenty levels and then the
previous level of this cave right before the

307
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,079
final boss fight, there are these
little flowers that you could throw your pickmen

308
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,359
in to make red, yellow,
or blue and some other things, and

309
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,799
I'm like, yeah, I probably
don't need that, like that's probably just

310
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,119
optional, and I would only be
able to get five of them because that's

311
00:22:22,279 --> 00:22:25,519
when the flower you put five in
that spits out five red and then it

312
00:22:25,559 --> 00:22:27,079
disappears you can't use it anymore.
And I'm like, so this is probably

313
00:22:27,079 --> 00:22:30,079
just like in case you wanted to
have a more variety for this final fight.

314
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,240
It turns out that that was a
mistake because I got to the electric

315
00:22:33,279 --> 00:22:37,039
phase and I didn't have yellow pickmen, and so every and like the boss

316
00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:42,200
throws out these little electric yellow balls
that send electric like lines all around in

317
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:47,240
the circle circular pattern, and so
I was like trying to dodge everything and

318
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,839
then still attack the guy, but
my pickman would get electrocuted and I was

319
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,319
screwed. So eventually I just like, I'm gonna hold all my Pickmen back

320
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,119
in the corner and just send the
dog out, because the dog was so

321
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,359
powered up at this point that he
could just go and do anything. So

322
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,079
I had him like take away all
those electric balls, and then we went

323
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:04,400
an attack and we were able to
get through it, and that was like

324
00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:08,519
just frustrating instead of fun at that
point. So it's like that's kind of

325
00:23:08,599 --> 00:23:11,559
like a little bit of a fizzle
out there at the very end, but

326
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:15,160
overall, just a fantastic game style, just some something I really really enjoyed

327
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,799
spending a ton of time with.
Like I took a break from Tears of

328
00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:22,039
the Kingdom specifically just to play through
Pickman four, and then when I got

329
00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:23,559
the first credits, I did kind
of consider maybe just putting it down,

330
00:23:25,079 --> 00:23:27,079
and I was like, I'm still
being drawn into this, and now that

331
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,319
I've beaten it, I didn't get
all the onions. I think I am

332
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,680
done with it now, so probably
won't go back because there's so much else

333
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,079
to play. Although I would love
a world in which no I would have

334
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,240
one hundred percent that game. It's
an easy game to one hundred percent in

335
00:23:38,319 --> 00:23:41,160
terms of like the desire to do
so. But it's like man it's just

336
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,720
not a very good use of my
time right now. But overall, just

337
00:23:44,759 --> 00:23:48,119
like I'm still really in love with
Pickman four. I mean you have a

338
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,720
writing credit because of it. So
yeah, if you haven't watched the Honest

339
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,720
Game trailer, Grub got a writing
credit on it. That was a lot

340
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:57,799
of That was a lot of fun. Yeah, I thought I trumpeted that

341
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,799
up. That was Yeah, definitely. Bailey did a very good job of

342
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,880
editing my jokes into something that resembled
something funny. So they were very funny

343
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:12,160
exactly, they were like ships.
Yes, that's exactly what it was.

344
00:24:12,599 --> 00:24:15,880
I had had a good time with
that. So yeah, that's what it

345
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:21,200
means to punch up a joke.
I get it now, Yes, Bailey

346
00:24:21,319 --> 00:24:26,279
actually right. Yeah, I need
everyone to just go to every single Honest

347
00:24:26,319 --> 00:24:27,599
Game trailers and say, like,
oh my god, this is great.

348
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:32,839
Bailey's Bailey's the best. Just just
put that just comment that. I mean,

349
00:24:33,759 --> 00:24:38,480
like the shredder of games media,
Grub. I need you to educate

350
00:24:38,559 --> 00:24:44,680
me and please excuse my Pickman blind
spot, because I I just thought Pickman

351
00:24:44,759 --> 00:24:49,200
were weird, a bunch of little
weirdos, and they are right. Was

352
00:24:49,279 --> 00:24:56,440
it intended for the name Pickman to
be evocative of kind of Pokemon. That's

353
00:24:56,559 --> 00:25:02,519
not the story they tell. The
story they tell is that Shigeru Miyamoto design

354
00:25:02,559 --> 00:25:07,000
the characters to look like a type
of carrot that sounds like Pickman in Japan,

355
00:25:08,319 --> 00:25:11,039
So like there, I don't know
if the characters are actually called Pickman,

356
00:25:11,079 --> 00:25:15,039
but there's it's like something like Peka
carrots or something like that, and

357
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,279
he designed them after that, and
that's where they come from. Allegedly,

358
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:19,640
I don't I don't know if it
does. It does. Yeah, it

359
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,920
does sound like Pokemon, so I
wouldn't be surprised if it's like, let's

360
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,640
try to confuse people. But that
also doesn't sound very Nintendo. Okay okay.

361
00:25:27,279 --> 00:25:32,799
I think Shigeru Miyamoto would be would
blow up on foraging TikTok. From

362
00:25:32,839 --> 00:25:36,920
the sounds of it, it sounds
like his interests are very varied. He

363
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,240
just loves being outside despite making video
games. That's right. It likes to

364
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,559
play in the dirt. Speaking about
playing in the dirt, I feel like

365
00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:49,319
I've been hitting a wall because I
keep jumping in dirt and slipping in grease

366
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:56,079
because I can't stop casting grease and
Balder's gate three, starting to figure out

367
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,200
why you might be slipping in grease. I have an easy fix for this

368
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,839
one, jan Yes, don't,
don't cask Grace. I can't are there

369
00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:06,640
are so many better spells. I
can't help it, Bailey, I don't

370
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,640
understand anything. I just got the
handsome wizard Man and he had a grease

371
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,119
spell. I'm like, well,
that's the only thing I'm gonna use him

372
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:19,000
fail. Yeah, it's It's so
funny because when when I started the game

373
00:26:19,079 --> 00:26:26,839
over after playing it multiplayer with with
for the EPF grub, we completely missed

374
00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:30,960
the wizard Man and we we wound
up in jail. Oh so wait,

375
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,599
which wizard Man is this? He's
the right, yes, Gail, Well,

376
00:26:33,799 --> 00:26:37,599
not the cover art guy, not
the one with the silver hair,

377
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:42,240
right, that's Stan's not He's not
a wizard he's a rogue vampire. Yeah

378
00:26:42,319 --> 00:26:45,440
right right right? Uh. And
then like we I pulled the wizard Man

379
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,720
out of the portal and then I
was like, oh, what's up,

380
00:26:48,759 --> 00:26:53,079
dog? And it's great. It's
great. Yeah, probably that we missed

381
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,920
it, and this makes it sound
like we were looking We were not looking

382
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,799
for anything. Well, I'm happy
that we didn't come across it. At

383
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:06,960
all, because yeah, yes,
yes he's been saved. Grub you put

384
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,319
on the dock that you've been playing
it, I've also been playing it,

385
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:14,519
as I understand, Bailey, you've
been been playing it, yep. I'm

386
00:27:14,519 --> 00:27:15,960
like, I'm I'm still at a
point where, like I said, I

387
00:27:17,039 --> 00:27:18,359
was trying to be picking for and
Tears of the Kingdom. So I'm like,

388
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:23,960
I keep dabbling in wallters Gate three
trying to honestly get over my intimidation

389
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,680
of it. It's just like I
could see how it takes up all this

390
00:27:26,759 --> 00:27:32,240
time, and it's not just like
a shallow time, it's deep time,

391
00:27:32,279 --> 00:27:36,119
Like you need to focus in on
this stuff and learn all these mechanics or

392
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,640
make an attempt to wear the mechanics
to find some fun in the stuff.

393
00:27:40,319 --> 00:27:42,319
And I'm still at a point where
I'm not sure what that process is going

394
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,200
to look like for me. So
I'm kind of curious to hear if you

395
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,759
guys have any tips and sort of
like what that process, what that process

396
00:27:47,839 --> 00:27:52,039
was like for you. Uh My
tip, Bailey, you've probably put way

397
00:27:52,039 --> 00:27:55,839
more hours than I have. My
tip is is just yolo grub, it

398
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,799
doesn't matter. That's kind of what
I'm think I'm gonna have to do.

399
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:03,279
Yeah, I'm little Blocks Vibe.
Yeah yeah, say that again. I

400
00:28:03,319 --> 00:28:07,359
can't not hear that enough. Yeah. I rolled with a little dwarf named

401
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:14,920
Block Lesno and and he's very brawlick. He's great. And then I'm just

402
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,799
punching people in the face. But
I'm very empathetic and I keep trying to

403
00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:22,319
break up fights. I don't have
enough charisma, so it just devolves into

404
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,240
a fight. It's great, that's
that sounds like Block West for sure.

405
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:32,400
I lifted up our game and there
was Block Wesner just completely naked with his

406
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,319
dick out. It's like, oh, yeah, that's where we left everybody.

407
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,720
Fantastic, fantastic. Yeah. I
have a rogue. Her name is

408
00:28:38,759 --> 00:28:44,680
Flip Bailey. She does flips.
It looks like me, Uh, it's

409
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,960
been good. I mean, like
the thing the problem is is like I'm

410
00:28:48,079 --> 00:28:52,119
very deep into it, like I'm
I'm near the end of the story and

411
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,599
I'm hoping to finish it after this. But I was hoping to finish it

412
00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:00,960
last night and I kept hitting this
like heart that I couldn't get past this

413
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,559
fight that was insane that I could
not get past. And I was just

414
00:29:03,599 --> 00:29:10,400
like I was like, I don't
know, I think I short circuited.

415
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,480
I like, I couldn't. I
couldn't do it anymore because I like the

416
00:29:12,519 --> 00:29:17,559
game so much. But it is
sort of like playing a game of Dungeons

417
00:29:17,559 --> 00:29:22,160
and Dragons with the worst dungeon master
you've ever encountered in your life. For

418
00:29:22,599 --> 00:29:26,799
the folks at home, Bailey that
don't know what a bad dungeon master or

419
00:29:26,839 --> 00:29:30,440
DM would would mean. What what
do you mean by that? Well,

420
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:36,440
they want you to do things in
a specific order. They are really weird

421
00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:41,640
about like mechanics, like, uh, they're buggy, and they keep crashing

422
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:48,519
the game for some fucking reason.
All the minis off the table, anytime

423
00:29:48,599 --> 00:29:51,960
something, anytime you try to open
up your phone or whatever. I heard

424
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,880
that this game makes all other Triple
A games look like lazy developers by comparison.

425
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:56,920
I was going around on the internet
and I'm like, oh, yeah,

426
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:02,680
that's people just aren't getting to the
bugs yet. There's infinitely the takeaway.

427
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:08,799
Yeah, so yeah, how are
you? Because like when I imagine

428
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,359
Dungeons and Dragons play at this point, I do imagine all the podcasts I've

429
00:30:12,359 --> 00:30:15,559
listened to. I've never played it
myself, and in those situations, the

430
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,720
d M is always very accommodating,
Like the whole point is like you are

431
00:30:19,759 --> 00:30:22,559
here to have fun, but maybe
it's more important. It's like wrestling,

432
00:30:22,599 --> 00:30:26,039
it's more important that the other person
doesn't get hurt. It's more important that

433
00:30:26,039 --> 00:30:27,960
the other people are like have fun
as well. If you play that way,

434
00:30:29,079 --> 00:30:30,799
everyone will have a good time because
they'll do the same for you.

435
00:30:30,839 --> 00:30:34,000
It's like that Golden rule plus one, Like golden rule, dude, what's

436
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,680
best for everyone else as well?
The game just can't it just can't do

437
00:30:38,759 --> 00:30:41,119
that, right. It has to
be a video game first, right,

438
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:45,960
Yes, so you've got dungeons and
dragons mechanics, but a game that's actively

439
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:52,200
trying to screw you over at all
opportunities, and it is at times deeply

440
00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:57,519
infuriateing. You wind up making one
wrong decision and soft locking yourself out of

441
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:02,319
entire quest lines because you answered a
question wrong, and now you have to

442
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:03,920
kill all these people or they're going
to kill you first, and there's no

443
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,119
way to talk out of it.
Like, have you been doing gets a

444
00:31:07,119 --> 00:31:11,480
little frustrating. Have you been doing
any any saves coming, Bailey? Or

445
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,319
have you just been rolling with this
little on onl on, like big important

446
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,559
roles that I can tell that if
I mess it up, I'm really gonna

447
00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:22,640
lock myself out of something important in
the story. I am going to save

448
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,200
scum. I don't typically, I
wouldn't typically, but in this situation,

449
00:31:26,359 --> 00:31:32,000
And please no, it's only in
like desperate situations because loading up one of

450
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,599
these games takes a full fucking hour. So like I'm when I'm doing it,

451
00:31:36,599 --> 00:31:40,599
I'm really meaning it, like it
matters. I'm feeling that pain like

452
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,160
it hurts me every time. I'm
really enjoying my time with this and this

453
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,480
being one of my first instructions to
like heavy heavy dice rolls and everything,

454
00:31:48,519 --> 00:31:52,200
and like, okay, shit,
all this stuff really does matter, huh.

455
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,720
Like like you said, Bailey,
I have been soft locked out of

456
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,440
stuff that I've seen people talk about. I'm like, I don't know who

457
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:04,720
that person is. Yeah, it
may see like people fail like the oh

458
00:32:04,839 --> 00:32:07,519
this is a zero skill check and
then they get a critical failure and still

459
00:32:07,519 --> 00:32:10,720
falance. Like I like that the
game makes that possible, Like that is

460
00:32:12,039 --> 00:32:15,160
that is a cool thing to see? Yeah. Yeah, it just goes

461
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,680
to show it doesn't matter how good
you are or something you can still really

462
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:23,599
fuck up exactly. I will say
I've seen people post like videos of like

463
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:30,599
later game scenes or gameplay, and
it does seem very very intimidating with having

464
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:35,799
to juggle MMO style hot bars after
a while, Bailey, has that been

465
00:32:35,839 --> 00:32:37,920
like a problem at all or have
you kind of just settled into a flow.

466
00:32:39,039 --> 00:32:42,480
I haven't had that much of a
problem with it, and I don't

467
00:32:42,519 --> 00:32:45,359
play MMOs, so like if anyone
else is having a problem, that feels

468
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:51,720
like a skill issue to me.
This was like a friendly question, Bailey,

469
00:32:51,799 --> 00:32:55,319
because I was just trying to gauge
where people were. Okay, all

470
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,079
right, Jeff Backlard, you do
you want to play ball? There's Gate

471
00:32:59,119 --> 00:33:02,519
three or something. Backlard's in full
defense mode. He this is like because

472
00:33:02,599 --> 00:33:06,279
he Backlark. Can I try to
like diagnose because i'mn't think I'm in a

473
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:09,160
like close to be where you are. Where it's you see, like,

474
00:33:09,279 --> 00:33:13,599
I see other people having a lot
of fun with this, and I I

475
00:33:13,599 --> 00:33:17,240
think I want that for myself,
But there's also a good chance of having

476
00:33:17,279 --> 00:33:22,119
FOMO because it might just be physically
impossible for me to spend the time on

477
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:23,039
this game. I need to actually
have that time, so it might be

478
00:33:23,039 --> 00:33:25,839
easier to just be like, I
don't care. I don't want to.

479
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,200
I don't want to actually get into
this game. Yeah, Like, I'm

480
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:34,440
definitely lying when I say I don't
care, but it's yeah, it's it's

481
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,920
a it's a necessity, it's a
it's it's out of necessity. I'm lying

482
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:44,240
because I have to lie because I
physically can't put this square peg in a

483
00:33:44,319 --> 00:33:47,960
round slot. Like it's just simply
not feasible. It's a naughty slot.

484
00:33:49,079 --> 00:33:51,839
I don't want. I mean,
look, I don't know. Maybe one

485
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,759
day, you know, in my
fifties, I could play Baller's Gate three

486
00:33:53,799 --> 00:33:59,519
next year, you know, jem
I felt bad after I said that,

487
00:33:59,559 --> 00:34:04,680
I'm sorry you You realize you've walked
into Dan Reiker joke territory. Yeah,

488
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,319
I know. You know, Bailey, you're better. And then I thought

489
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,000
like, oh I can rip too, though, Okay, you're better than

490
00:34:09,079 --> 00:34:13,519
him, better than him, Okay, alright, alright, yeah I don't

491
00:34:13,559 --> 00:34:16,280
know what kind of slot is square, but you understand my analogy, isn't

492
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,920
it. Okay, No, we
don't need to talk about you know,

493
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,000
you know it's anyway, so like, yeah, it sucks. I would

494
00:34:23,039 --> 00:34:25,840
like to play it, but like
some I forget one of you guys were

495
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,880
telling me like, oh, even
if you want to try it, like,

496
00:34:29,119 --> 00:34:31,159
you still have to know a lot
of stuff, and I don't know,

497
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:36,760
it's like common game of the year. I'm obviously gonna probably have not

498
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,559
even touched it yet and I'll be
in trouble. So you know whatever,

499
00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:45,679
I think that you uh don't have
to know stuff necessarily, you just got

500
00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:51,199
to play the right class in that
situation. Yeah, you can know nothing.

501
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,880
Yeah, I would say if you're
like new to the concept of dungeons

502
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:58,039
and dragons, I wouldn't go with
like a magic class. I would go

503
00:34:58,079 --> 00:35:00,320
into like a fighter or like a
rogue or something like. I wouldnt giving

504
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:05,360
me advice on the thing I said, I'm absolutely not playing well. I

505
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,360
think, oh, it sounds like
you're just afraid, And I think that

506
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,199
if you had a little less fear
in you, maybe you would try this

507
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:15,119
game. Because as much as I
hate it right now, it actually is

508
00:35:15,159 --> 00:35:16,960
a great game and I think people
should play it. I think you're a

509
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,960
part of it. Here's a part
of it. Oh yeah, that's the

510
00:35:20,119 --> 00:35:22,159
same for me. Yeah, And
the console version is coming out next month.

511
00:35:22,199 --> 00:35:25,800
Which I'm actually very curious to see
how that turned out because I've heard

512
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:30,000
really good things. Uh, and
it is actively breaking my PC every time

513
00:35:30,039 --> 00:35:36,599
I open it. I can hear
my PC going like like underneath the casing.

514
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,320
It's like apparently like Zen two chip
pcpus or all that matters. These

515
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,639
are relatively new CPUs, Like I
just gave one to Mike, an older

516
00:35:44,639 --> 00:35:45,440
one that I had, but it's
like a really good one, and it's

517
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,079
like apparently that's struggling with Boulder's game. And I was like, oh man,

518
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,159
already these CPUs are being outdated by
this this CRPG. But that's the

519
00:35:53,199 --> 00:35:57,280
kind of game that would do it. Yeah, you would have thought that,

520
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,679
like the fomo would have really taken
a hold of me on this one,

521
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,280
right, like because I am so
prone to that. But like it's

522
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:08,440
just not and I'm trying this big
It's like I think it's easier to be

523
00:36:08,559 --> 00:36:13,199
like yeah, right, there's plenty
of plenty of other stuff to play.

524
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,079
I gotta get it. It's like
I don't need to see the Grand Canyon.

525
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,360
I know it's this huge fucking hole
in the ground. Fuck it,

526
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,559
it's enormous, it's huge, it's
whatever I'm just gonna skip over it,

527
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,840
but that people will be like,
no, you've seen in a person who's

528
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:28,880
different, and of course, of
course it is of course flown over it

529
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,280
a bunch. Ye fine, I
know we're gonna get the Game of the

530
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:37,360
Year and what's gonna happen is Zelda. Like I'll go and assuming Zelda's obviously

531
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,719
a luck and it's gonna be like, actually, Boulder's Gate's gonna have a

532
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,760
ton of support, So like,
I'm like, I want to give it

533
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,639
a chance before we get there,
because I don't want to be rushing it

534
00:36:45,679 --> 00:36:47,440
at the end of the year.
So I'm gonna go. It's just hard.

535
00:36:47,559 --> 00:36:51,280
Yeah, I feel like Balder's Gate
is gonna have a ton of support,

536
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:52,599
and I don't think it's gonna walk
away empty hand. I think that

537
00:36:52,639 --> 00:36:58,840
would be bananas. But I do
feel like Gelda Zelda still is Game of

538
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,519
the Year for me person only having
played having finished that one and getting near

539
00:37:02,559 --> 00:37:07,760
the end of Boulder's Gate just yeah, just just yeah. Some people actually

540
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,360
have finished Cheers with the Kingdom at
this point. Jan I know, based

541
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:15,239
on talk to based on who YouTube
talk to, it seems like an impossible

542
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:22,400
feat. But it is actually quite
doable. I'd recommend trying. Actually no

543
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:29,880
one else does it as it's Yeah, it's just still in the game of

544
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:34,199
the year for me because with between
Balder's Gate and Zelda, Like with Balder's

545
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,320
Gate, it's incredible what they've achieved. With Zelda, it's also incredible what

546
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,920
they've achieved. And at no point
did I rage quit it. I was

547
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:45,480
just having a really good time the
whole time. Yeah, see that,

548
00:37:45,599 --> 00:37:50,000
that tells me everything I need to
hear. Okay, you know, once

549
00:37:50,039 --> 00:37:52,599
I hear that, like people are
actively upset at Balder's Gate occasionally, Like,

550
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,760
you know, I don't need that. I don't need that angry in

551
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,800
my life. My angry enough.
You know. It's a card game break

552
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:04,280
on stream because I needed to like
just not play something that was going to

553
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,440
crash my computer every three seconds or
yell at me because I inexplicably rolled a

554
00:38:08,559 --> 00:38:15,079
one on a lock pick even though
I'm a rogue with seventeen dexterity. It's

555
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:20,239
fine. Sometimes your hands are tired, but speaking about cards are tired.

556
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,280
Speaking about a card game break,
Bailey, I see that you've been playing

557
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:28,159
and streaming Slay the Spire. Yeah, that's the card game I've been playing

558
00:38:28,159 --> 00:38:31,280
when I don't want to play Boulders
Skates. It's very good, very one

559
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:38,480
of the same. They've got similar
concepts. I'm obsessed with Slay the Spire.

560
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:43,280
I only started playing it this week. Someone recommended it to me in

561
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:47,840
my stream shot at to Jack after
I got became obsessed with Inscription and I

562
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:52,599
wanted another game, and he was
like, Oh, You're gonna love this,

563
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,440
and he was right it. I
have been playing it just this week,

564
00:38:55,519 --> 00:39:00,519
but I've Slayed the Spire once.
I feel like I'm freakish good at

565
00:39:00,519 --> 00:39:02,920
it, and I'm so excited to
keep doing it because it is. It

566
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,440
is the most addicting game I think
I've ever played. I am obsessed with

567
00:39:07,519 --> 00:39:10,440
it to a degree that I haven't
been obsessed with anything in like a really

568
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:15,159
long time. Yeah cool. I
had a Slave the Spire problem as well,

569
00:39:15,159 --> 00:39:19,280
or when it initially came out,
and then like they as people are

570
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,880
telling me like, oh, you
gotta you gotta turn on the quick option

571
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,320
or whatever the fast mode is.
I'm like, oh shit, this is

572
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:29,960
a whole another gear. You go
into the options, it's like slightly faster.

573
00:39:30,079 --> 00:39:34,039
I forget what it does because it's
been a hot minute. Oh Bailey,

574
00:39:34,079 --> 00:39:37,079
if you like Slay the Spire,
there's another game that is exactly like

575
00:39:37,119 --> 00:39:39,480
Slay the Spire, but on a
train Monster train. There we go,

576
00:39:39,559 --> 00:39:45,159
what what? But I love trains? Was gonna recommend this? I haven't

577
00:39:45,199 --> 00:39:47,239
played either. I've I've had both, like on my prephery, but like,

578
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:51,679
obviously it's not gonna happen this here. But I definitely could say you're

579
00:39:51,679 --> 00:39:54,599
both, Like jan, you've played
both, which one would you recommend first?

580
00:39:55,000 --> 00:40:01,239
I am still leaning towards the Slay
the Spire camp because that is not

581
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:07,440
an easier roguelike, but a more
digestible one rather than Monster Train Monster Train.

582
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:12,360
You have to balance three lanes versus
just the one. Cool. You

583
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,280
gotta be a jungler, got a
little mobile style exactly, you gotta be

584
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:20,639
a little mobile. I love roguelikes, and I'm only recently really getting into

585
00:40:20,679 --> 00:40:23,719
card games, and this is just
me. It seems like there's a whole

586
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:28,079
world for me to unlock out there. I thought the bent of honest game

587
00:40:28,079 --> 00:40:30,320
trailers is going to turn very far
away from Triple A titles and just right

588
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:35,119
into like a very specific late card
just card game joke. After card game

589
00:40:35,199 --> 00:40:37,239
joke, people are going to get
so sick of it. We're gonna lose

590
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,719
all our subscribers. Sorry to my
bosses. It's gonna be worth it.

591
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:45,719
It's we're going to find the right
audience. Roguelikes and card games are two

592
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:47,480
of the best genres that are the
most like. If you mention them,

593
00:40:47,559 --> 00:40:51,559
people are like, oh, I
don't like those games. I'm out here.

594
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,000
That's like, oh, you know
you. Roguelikes are just the best

595
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,000
thing you could do, Like,
the best thing you could turn a game

596
00:40:57,039 --> 00:41:00,519
into is a roguelike. And then
card games. You can't put out a

597
00:41:00,519 --> 00:41:04,480
card game unless you've thought about the
mechanics so hard. I mean by like

598
00:41:04,519 --> 00:41:06,960
what makes them fun at this point. So it's like, if you're putting

599
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,920
out a card game in twenty twenty
three, it's probably gonna be a good

600
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:13,440
time. So yeah, up for
those. I was thinking about this when

601
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,960
I saw you streaming Slay the Spire
Bailey, but I was thinking, holy

602
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,559
smokes, have I been wrong.
My whole life is math actually fun?

603
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,239
Math is fun? Huh. Math
can be fun. I didn't like math

604
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:28,400
when I was growing up, but
then when I worked a retail job and

605
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,840
math became if you can do dixty
percent off, you can figure out how

606
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,960
much you can buy this item for
Shundley. Math was a blast, and

607
00:41:36,039 --> 00:41:40,480
now math is in game and game
and game even more fun than works like

608
00:41:40,559 --> 00:41:45,559
math Blaster, Like that's why I
learned that like a math blaster. All

609
00:41:45,639 --> 00:41:50,159
right, game dev's listening to this
podcast. Here's a free three million dollar

610
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,360
idea. Here's your new roguelike or
your new game idea to make all right,

611
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:58,519
Basically, you just hand out change. You just hand out change because

612
00:41:59,559 --> 00:42:04,840
as some of that has worked a
register before figuring out the proper change to

613
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,239
hand out with coins very satisfying.
Just turned out into a game, turned

614
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:12,960
into ye have like the game well
that should absolutely be a thing. And

615
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,880
then like make it all complicated too, Like level two is like, oh

616
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:22,599
but they're returning something and you introduce
new currencies, right like you're just like,

617
00:42:22,639 --> 00:42:25,239
well, now you're getting making it, and you get sucked into a

618
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:30,360
fantasy world where like they have like
not just like dollars and cents, they

619
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:34,880
have like gold and silver and buttons
and stuff, and someone's trying to write

620
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,039
a check and then you get nobody
else can have this idea. Yeah,

621
00:42:39,119 --> 00:42:42,440
thank you, Bailey. Yeah,
one of these days I gotta learn how

622
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,159
to develop a game, and then
we'll it'll happen. Guys. Well I

623
00:42:45,159 --> 00:42:46,920
think you just tell chat GPD to
do it now it will happen. Oh

624
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,840
totally, that's what I heard.
That's what I heard. Yeah. And

625
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,159
then just think about when you got
to introduce cup ons and everything, right,

626
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:59,719
yeah, I love cup ons.
What no, that's DLC. The

627
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,599
coup ponds is all DLC. Okay, all right, and then and then

628
00:43:02,639 --> 00:43:07,760
you could have like a peripheral with
like you gotta scan the cup on and

629
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:14,199
everything. All right. Oh that's
yeah. There's something really satisfying about this

630
00:43:14,199 --> 00:43:15,320
game. I want to play it. Good job, what's it called?

631
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:20,719
What's it called? What's it called? Uh? Chap two? Change change

632
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,199
makers? A better change makers?
Yeah? I like change makers. I

633
00:43:23,199 --> 00:43:25,800
do think that's good. Yes,
yeah, okay, now there's actually a

634
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:30,519
TM. Now there's actually a TM
there. All right, guys, Yeah,

635
00:43:30,039 --> 00:43:34,480
game devs, we're homies, we're
friends. I love I love everything

636
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,239
you make, but don't work fifty
fifty with you. Yeah, this this

637
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:42,440
is why I should just produce stuff, because is the thirty meter? Is

638
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,880
the seventies them to you to decide. It depends on how good of a

639
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:49,920
lawyer you get. I guess you
got to get a lawyer. Now change

640
00:43:50,039 --> 00:43:55,239
No, it's a business. Change
the logo. Yeah, c is there.

641
00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,320
You get five hundred podcast points,
change makers, plan making sense.

642
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,960
That's the deal. See with the
Kupins. J Yes, the cup Ons,

643
00:44:07,039 --> 00:44:13,440
the Kupins. Uh, Grub.
I don't think you've beat this game

644
00:44:13,519 --> 00:44:17,159
yet? No you have not.
No, I'm like not even really trying

645
00:44:17,159 --> 00:44:20,840
to beat it. I'm having fun
doing it. Wh Wow, that's like

646
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,840
you know, we're twenty minutes away
from our destination. It's been a long

647
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:29,199
drive to get to the airbnb.
Dad, please just pull over, Like,

648
00:44:29,639 --> 00:44:31,800
we don't need to stop by this
jam stand. We've already bought twenty

649
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:37,960
pounds of cherries. Grub, you
wrote on this dock here you continue to

650
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,079
have game of the year moments in
Tears of the Kingdom, and you know

651
00:44:40,119 --> 00:44:43,519
we'll call this the game of the
week because I have a little discussion.

652
00:44:43,559 --> 00:44:47,199
I want to to get Oh fun, Okay, it's earned it, so

653
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:52,280
yeah, I uh, what happened
was I've seen Baldishkate three happening and I'm

654
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:52,679
like, well, I gotta click
some time to that, but now I

655
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:57,880
like looked at like what's coming up
very soon in terms of reviews or review

656
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,760
code and stuff like that. I
have to in Tears of the Kingdom by

657
00:45:01,079 --> 00:45:05,159
let's say, like by the end
of this week. And so after as

658
00:45:05,159 --> 00:45:07,159
soon as I beat Pickman four,
I jumped right back into Tears of the

659
00:45:07,199 --> 00:45:12,800
Kingdom and spent all weekend playing it
again. And I've had the like the

660
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,639
quest I've had. I think it's
probably where backlard you're you're probably about there.

661
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:20,519
It says a crisis at High Rule
Castle. Can I interrupt you real

662
00:45:20,599 --> 00:45:23,400
quick? I will interrupt you real
quick. Okay, it's a change makers.

663
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:30,119
There's like sec after you get the
change. Occasionally to break up the

664
00:45:30,159 --> 00:45:37,000
flow of gameplay, you have to
bag the groceries and then it becomes like

665
00:45:37,039 --> 00:45:39,920
a resident evil for inventory game.
And I know we have one of the

666
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:45,119
you can do like ry Hatsworth where
like both games are happening at the same

667
00:45:45,159 --> 00:45:52,199
time. This fucking game would sell
a million units on mobile. I promise

668
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,079
you, you know I know nothing
about like three dollars on Steam and make

669
00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:58,000
a ton I don't know nothing about
game development. I'm going to go buy

670
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:04,280
a whiteboard after this and make a
like a tree a chart yeah whatever,

671
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,000
tree, come on, take a
tree. Okay, I just do this,

672
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,360
all right, Just just make a
game everyone, all right? Please?

673
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,000
No no, no, no no
no. We should do a game

674
00:46:13,079 --> 00:46:15,960
jam. We should just try to
figure out and then TMNT. All right,

675
00:46:15,159 --> 00:46:21,440
please please make the game your cowards, all right. Anyway, I'm

676
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,119
supposed to be going to Hirol Castle. I went in there and cooked my

677
00:46:23,119 --> 00:46:27,880
head in, and uh, what
I did is like I discovered the soldier

678
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,239
armor and that's what I'm trying to
upgrade as well. I'm like, you

679
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,320
know what, let's go take care
of a few things while I try to

680
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:37,320
get the stuff I need to upgrade
this armor. I need like three high

681
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,000
Knocks guts and five of the Zoflo's
tails, all kinds of stuff, And

682
00:46:40,519 --> 00:46:45,320
basically that means going out and just
farming enemies I killed. I don't know.

683
00:46:45,599 --> 00:46:47,320
I think every Highknox that was in
the world, which are like the

684
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:51,119
big cave troll looking guys, I
got killed everything. And this is like

685
00:46:51,159 --> 00:46:54,800
the base level Highknoxes because I think
they drop the things I need, and

686
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:59,159
I got like maybe two Highknocks guts, so I'm like waiting for the red

687
00:46:59,199 --> 00:47:01,800
moon to come back, right so
they can respond, Yeah, the blood

688
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:06,039
mood and is it a million times? How do you not know what it's

689
00:47:06,079 --> 00:47:08,559
cold? I skip it every time. Yeah, well sometimes it doesn't let

690
00:47:08,599 --> 00:47:13,840
me skip it. You got to
hit the X and then start right away.

691
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:19,079
Like in Breath of the Wild,
she the blood moon rises once again.

692
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,960
She sounds like this weird lady.
Maybe my ability to tune things out.

693
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:28,000
Oh my god, that's really impressed. Anyway, Yes, I'm waiting

694
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:29,920
for the blood mood to come back, and so I'm like, I'll take

695
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:31,000
care of a few other things out
in the world that I was having fun

696
00:47:31,039 --> 00:47:36,320
with, and I'm doing like all
the pen missions and stuff, the journalist

697
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,880
missions, and that's I love the
journalist missions. I love. When I

698
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:42,960
ran out of those, I was
like, genuinely sad I didn't have any

699
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,639
more to do. That guy's the
best. I think they're in love.

700
00:47:45,079 --> 00:47:49,280
I'm pretty sure they're in love.
Oh yeah, like they are. Like

701
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,079
it's there's a lot of tension there
and I really like it a lot.

702
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,079
Like there was a fun one where
like there's this the all clucking cucko.

703
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:59,400
I think it's how you say it, yes, yes, and it's like

704
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,079
the oh, this Cuco that can
tell you the fortunes and stuff, and

705
00:48:01,079 --> 00:48:05,079
everyone goes and gets in line and
tries to hear their fortunes and all it

706
00:48:05,119 --> 00:48:07,079
really has to do is a bunch
of like go get on that building and

707
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:09,960
we'll tell your future or whatever.
And it's like all these challenges. It's

708
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:14,760
really stupid, but I really like
it. And of course the Cuco spoilers

709
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:15,840
is it. I mean you know
this, come on, everyone knows this.

710
00:48:16,119 --> 00:48:20,880
It's a Yiga Clan guy in disguise
and he pops out and he fights

711
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,840
you, and every time something's like
from the Yiga Clan, I'm like,

712
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,760
yeah, I love these idiots.
They're so dumb, they're so stupid.

713
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:29,920
They're like the worst criminals ever,
and I love just beating them up.

714
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:34,519
So I was presents in this game, like have you explored much of the

715
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:43,239
downstairs area? Because you wow,
you a hundred wait downstairs, you've hundred

716
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:47,199
percent of the downstairs and you haven't
finished Crisis in High Rule Castle. So

717
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:51,159
that brings us to the next thing
that happened to me my Game of the

718
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,159
Year moment. I was just like, in doing one of these pen missions,

719
00:48:54,199 --> 00:48:58,559
and I was so buy the one
of these stables, and I talked

720
00:48:58,599 --> 00:49:00,000
to someone It's like, hey,
that fucking up there, huh. I'm

721
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:04,320
like, yeah, that's it looks
like there's probably some fun stuff in there.

722
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,800
I should go check it out.
Very good point video game. And

723
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,320
so I I clean up some of
the pen missions and I'm like, okay,

724
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,480
I'll figure out how to get up
there, and I build I don't

725
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,719
know, I built like an aircraft
or I think I built my hover bike,

726
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,599
and I hover biked into these clouds
and it's it's pea soup. You

727
00:49:16,679 --> 00:49:21,760
cannot see shit, like it's so
so so foggy, and I'm starting to

728
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,599
get the point, like the idea, like I'm not supposed to be here,

729
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:28,920
but the game won't stop me.
And boy, that's just about the

730
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,360
best thing in the video game that
that I enjoy experiencing. So it's like,

731
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,360
you're not supposed to be here,
but if you want to be here,

732
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,360
feel free to do it. And
I'm like finding land occasionally and my

733
00:49:37,599 --> 00:49:40,840
my shrine sensor goes off. It's
like, hey, there's something nearby.

734
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,679
I'm like, okay, I'm gonna
find this, so at least I can

735
00:49:43,679 --> 00:49:46,119
get a checkpoint up here that I
can fast travel back too. I forgot

736
00:49:46,159 --> 00:49:50,280
about my portable fast travel points.
I should have just dropped one of those,

737
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,519
but I'm like, I'll find this
shrine and I fell. Should we

738
00:49:52,679 --> 00:49:58,960
should we put a spoiler tag there's
you can make you can make travel.

739
00:49:59,079 --> 00:50:01,440
Okay, it's been half a year. We can I'm gonna talk about the

740
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:05,480
game a little bit, so I
need to just need to follow up with

741
00:50:05,599 --> 00:50:07,599
you after this. Okay, Yeah, are we talking about the group of

742
00:50:07,639 --> 00:50:14,880
sky islands that look kind of like
a dragon. Yes, Okay, back

743
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:16,800
on this. I am going to
get into the spoilers now. So okay,

744
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,440
okay, let me let me just
hey, folks, if you're watching

745
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,960
and listening, quick spoilers. Yes, So, I I fall off the

746
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:28,000
island and I'm falling through the clouds
and I'm like shit, and I'm just

747
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,360
trying to find any other island to
land on, and it's I can't see

748
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,159
anything. I can't see five feet
in front of my face. So I'm

749
00:50:34,199 --> 00:50:37,320
like just I'm like hoping I get
lucky. And then the shrine Stansor goes

750
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:39,800
off again and I'm able to like
triangulate the direction I'm supposed to go in,

751
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:44,440
and I land right on this island
and I'm like, okay, I'll

752
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:45,519
guess I'll find the shrine. I
find the shrine, I turn it on,

753
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:49,880
and then I turn around and there's
this weird mask behind me, and

754
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:52,039
I pick up the mask and it
shines a laser beam down to the ground,

755
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,000
and I'm like, what, I've
never seen anything like this in this

756
00:50:55,039 --> 00:51:00,119
game. What is this? And
so I glue that to a plane and

757
00:51:00,159 --> 00:51:01,519
I fly to follow the ways or
beam down because it's like one of those

758
00:51:01,679 --> 00:51:05,679
those shrine crystals that you need to
take there it tells you where to go,

759
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:10,039
and I follow it down. We
go underground, and all of a

760
00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:14,360
sudden, I'm in this big thing
that I've seen before, Like it's called

761
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,239
like the Left Leg Shrine and the
Right Leg Shrine. I've been there before.

762
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:20,800
I again, I've one percent of
the downstairs. And then all of

763
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,920
a sudden activates and I'm putting the
pieces together of this big machine. And

764
00:51:24,679 --> 00:51:28,079
all while this is happening, I
look at my menu and it says,

765
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,480
oh, by the way, your
main quest has been updated. I'm like,

766
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:31,679
wait, what this has been quest
stuff? I thought I'm just going

767
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:36,679
to the castle to defeat again,
and this is incredible. There's so much

768
00:51:36,679 --> 00:51:38,880
more in this game, and it's
like I could just stumble. Sequence breaking

769
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:44,559
is fun. Sequence breaking and such
a large game like this feels like I

770
00:51:44,599 --> 00:51:46,840
have ownership of the experience in such
a way that it just it blew me

771
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,920
away. I won't get into too
many other details because it's like, I'm

772
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:54,000
just gonna talk about what is the
quest? But doing that was it blew

773
00:51:54,079 --> 00:51:55,920
me away? And I'm just like, yep, this is this is it

774
00:51:55,960 --> 00:52:00,159
for me. This is the exact
kind of game I want. All are

775
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:06,199
folks, were We're clear, We're
clear, We're clear. Thank thank you

776
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:10,519
listening. Sorry, my mind is
like, so you probably I think a

777
00:52:10,519 --> 00:52:14,039
lot of you did it in the
right order. You didn't, So I'm

778
00:52:14,039 --> 00:52:16,320
like so desperate to hear what that
is. So we should eventually do a

779
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:22,519
spoiler cast. We should. My
major, my major thing with the Depths

780
00:52:22,599 --> 00:52:24,840
is I'm a little scaredy cat with
a coward's heart. So I was like

781
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:30,800
very afraid of going down there because
I didn't want hands with eyeballs to my

782
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:32,960
soul. God, have you ever
beaten one of those? Yes? Well,

783
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:37,079
now I have a lot of times. I'm not afraid of them anymore.

784
00:52:37,119 --> 00:52:39,760
Eventure, I think you need to
write doing one of the main things

785
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,559
you will you will have once you
are done with Crisis and Higher Rule Castle,

786
00:52:45,639 --> 00:52:52,280
you will know how to beat them. Okay, so that's still like

787
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:53,960
the thing there, even though my
main quest updated, like I did this

788
00:52:54,039 --> 00:52:57,960
other part of the main quest.
Now it's been like lopped off and I'm

789
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,360
still at Crisis in hierro Cast.
Yeah. No, exploring the depths has

790
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:04,159
been a thing I've been like doing
on my own time, like because again

791
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,639
because also again I was trying to
get through the game in a week.

792
00:53:07,119 --> 00:53:10,440
Ye works, So like I was
like, exploring the depth seems cool,

793
00:53:10,519 --> 00:53:14,840
but this is something I'm just going
to have to get exactly exactly. Like

794
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,960
Oh, I decided early on,
since I wasn't doing a review and I

795
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,960
didn't have that time pressure, I
was going to get myself the permission to

796
00:53:22,039 --> 00:53:24,480
explore this world how I wanted to, and very quickly I'm like, I

797
00:53:24,519 --> 00:53:30,599
think I just want to percent depths. A big part of that is realizing

798
00:53:30,639 --> 00:53:34,480
the connection to the surface world,
and that made it easier to spot all

799
00:53:34,519 --> 00:53:37,159
the shrines on the surface because they're
their linked together. So I was like,

800
00:53:37,199 --> 00:53:38,400
that way I can get all the
shrines. And I'm not like one

801
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:42,679
hundred and twenty five shrines completed,
and I'm like, I've realized there's one

802
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:44,840
hundred and fifty two. So I'm
probably not going to do it because I

803
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,920
don't want to do a pixel hunt
to find the last few. But you

804
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,280
know, that was fun. Also, it turns out like the names of

805
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:53,920
the shrines and the names of the
roots, the light roots, they're the

806
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:57,239
same thing. They're just backwards and
forwards. And it took me the entire

807
00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:00,559
game to realize that. Yeah,
all that stuff so fun. So I

808
00:54:00,679 --> 00:54:02,639
was like, I'm glad I could
play the game this way and I didn't

809
00:54:02,639 --> 00:54:07,039
try to rush it because I otherwise
I think I would not have done so

810
00:54:07,079 --> 00:54:09,000
many of these things. And really
it's just confirmed it for Game of Bear

811
00:54:09,079 --> 00:54:14,719
for me. So I just love
seeing folks in the chat make that connection.

812
00:54:15,559 --> 00:54:21,039
So the way I'm playing this game, what's that turboshn to make a

813
00:54:21,119 --> 00:54:27,320
joke about what how Mike got a
Nintendo jail for saying how many careful numbers

814
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,880
I plan? So I'm playing this
with like my kid kind of being the

815
00:54:31,079 --> 00:54:37,280
driving you know force like he has
like yeah, exactly, he has like

816
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:42,559
the agency, right, and he's
like, we gotta do the regional phenomenon

817
00:54:42,639 --> 00:54:45,559
like right away, and we kind
of mainline that a couple side quests here

818
00:54:45,599 --> 00:54:50,360
and there. Have you guys done
the dragon tears? We've done too.

819
00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,119
You need that's what you need to
do next, Okay, So it is

820
00:54:53,199 --> 00:54:57,559
so amazing. So yeah, I
could see what that is, sort of

821
00:54:57,639 --> 00:55:00,800
leading up to the one that's like
tattooed on a outain near the Lightning Temple.

822
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:05,519
I like, we like can't find
it. It's there. I'm just

823
00:55:05,519 --> 00:55:07,119
trying to get a pie and like
look for the one that's a bit Yeah,

824
00:55:07,119 --> 00:55:09,800
I know you brute force it too. Yeah, for sure. Time

825
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:15,079
So looking around, but like you
know you talked about I heard about one

826
00:55:15,079 --> 00:55:16,719
of those things you were talking about
with like a new sort of censor.

827
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:22,360
There's like an ability we still don't
have that. I know because I played

828
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:27,559
the preview and we don't have that
yet, right, And I'm like,

829
00:55:27,599 --> 00:55:30,159
that's like doing the I'll just get
like give you the right direction? Is

830
00:55:30,159 --> 00:55:31,960
that? Okay? I don't want
to spoil any sure, that's fine.

831
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:37,400
If I think if you do any
of the stuff with the scientists Robbie yeah,

832
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:42,280
and like going down to the depths
and finding Yeah, so like I

833
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:44,639
want to do that with that stuff. I just like stumbled on that stuff

834
00:55:44,639 --> 00:55:45,599
as well. And then later I'm
like, oh, I'm gat excited and

835
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:49,719
talk to this guy about this other
thing. So talk to him. Yeah,

836
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,760
like I want to do that stuff, Like there's there. I think

837
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:57,199
they are main quests. They're considered
main quests, but they're not like the

838
00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:00,360
main main like one a stuff.
So I feel like on this trip we're

839
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:04,719
gonna I'm like, let's be explorers, right, I'm trying to like,

840
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,159
you know, push that agenda on
him, like we should explore more.

841
00:56:08,199 --> 00:56:10,840
We shouldn't just like go to the
dot. We have to explore. We

842
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,400
got to find this stuff. But
the depths are scary. I get it,

843
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:15,679
Like I like, yeah, it
does not want to go there,

844
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:20,599
Like that's what I feel the exact
same ways barely where it's like I am

845
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,920
scaredy cat, I definitely am.
And I'm like I just got to force

846
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:27,400
myself for myself at it. So
I know what's in the shadows and it

847
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,000
usually it's just a big frocks,
a giant frog guy and playing I can

848
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:35,320
outrun him. But yeah, the
major for me was when I put a

849
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,000
big light bulb, the big light
bulb plant on my hoverbike so I could

850
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,760
just like light up the whole thing
as I'm flying around. That's very helpful.

851
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:44,320
I locked it for me. Yeah. The major thing that made it

852
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:50,079
easier for me to feel comfortable walking
around down there was upgrading my getting the

853
00:56:50,159 --> 00:56:55,400
gloom outfit and getting the minor outfit
which closed. Both of those things have

854
00:56:55,519 --> 00:57:00,920
been critical in my fearlessness and being
able to just sort of freely tromp around

855
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:06,039
down there, and also doing the
thing that you accidentally did made a big

856
00:57:06,079 --> 00:57:09,400
difference, Jeff, because you can
just hop on its back and walk.

857
00:57:10,559 --> 00:57:15,440
Put the fucking since so insane that
that's just in the game. A man.

858
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:21,159
I love it. It's it's it's
taken over so much of my life

859
00:57:21,199 --> 00:57:23,639
and of my gaming life, and
it's it's just the best. Yep,

860
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:29,320
it really is. I'm I am
going to try to beat it, you

861
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:31,039
know what, Okay, all right, I believe in you. Yes,

862
00:57:31,159 --> 00:57:36,360
I just got to commit to it. I feel like I've been putting it

863
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,360
off because I'm a baby gamer,
right and I feel like I'm gonna give

864
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:43,519
myself a deadline. Okay, I'm
gonna give myself a deadline, and I'm

865
00:57:43,519 --> 00:57:46,519
gonna put I'm gonna put put put
some put some steaks on it, all

866
00:57:46,599 --> 00:57:54,760
right, okaypp some sloppy steaks.
Okay. If I do not finish Tears

867
00:57:54,800 --> 00:58:01,440
of the Kingdom by our packs West
panel, sure, I will shave my

868
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:07,000
head at the panel. Holy shit, why would you just do? Why

869
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:08,920
would you just walk into that?
You just worked yourself into a shoe?

870
00:58:09,039 --> 00:58:12,800
Right? Is that the right way
to use it here? You just want

871
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,320
to shave your head? It definitely
does. But but listen, if you

872
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,719
get to it where you don't like, just let me know. We'll get

873
00:58:17,719 --> 00:58:21,440
on. We'll get on the site
and we'll just start streaming it and I'll

874
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:22,760
just we'll co work. You know, what is the body doubling thing.

875
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,199
I'll be there and I'll be on
your side. We'll get it finished,

876
00:58:25,199 --> 00:58:28,280

Let me plead yourself, let me
tell you, let me let me

878
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:36,000

my god, dude, you're fucked. But but I got two and a

880
00:58:40,039 --> 00:58:45,000
half stamp on the circle's baby.
Okay, all right, so you get

881
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:47,840
too, don't worry. Yeah,
there's no no, no, that's that's

882
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:52,360
how I rove. Okay, all

you want. So. Uh.
The Giant Bomb is returning to Pack's West.

905
01:00:22,679 --> 01:00:25,280
As we said a couple of weeks
ago, we finally have the dates

906
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:30,559

in right back loor. Yeah, they

907
01:00:30,599 --> 01:00:34,239
are locked Okay, okay, cool. I don't know specifically which theaters or

908
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:38,320
sections they're in, but I do
know the time slots. Uh. Grub

909
01:00:38,599 --> 01:00:45,239
Lucy Tam myself will be part of
a panel hosted by Jennie Stoble on Friday

910
01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:50,280
night, September first, at eight
pm, I believe, and then the

911
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:55,920
Giant Bomb voicemail dumb truck rolls into
packs West with those same people, grub

912
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:04,199
Tam Lucy myself and our love lovely
robotic friend robot Mitch joining us as well

913
01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:10,159
Saturday September second at five pm.
Yeah, and I know that the it's

914
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:13,320
named after a winged creature. The
name of the room that we're in,

915
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,360
so I means it's on the top
floor. That's how they do it.

916
01:01:15,599 --> 01:01:17,760
I think we have this. I'm
gonna find it, give me a second,

917
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:22,400
so we'll Uh yeah, I can. I think I can finish this

918
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,039
game by September. Yeah, yeah, I can do that by September.

919
01:01:24,119 --> 01:01:32,559
First, we'll be taking live voicemails. Sorry, just subscribe a live voicemail

01:01:37,199 --> 01:01:42,320
regular editor check in, and we'll
we've seen at Packs, what our time

922
01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:45,199

never been to Packs or Seattle, I

923
01:01:45,239 --> 01:01:52,039

Also, we will take some voicemails from

926
01:02:01,719 --> 01:02:07,079
Yeah. Uh theater that's level five
of the Summit Building. Okay,

927
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:12,199
yes, uh. And you know, loose loose plans of maybe we'll we'll

928
01:02:12,199 --> 01:02:15,159
we'll have we'll, we'll take over
a bar. Maybe we'll just squat up

929
01:02:15,239 --> 01:02:20,239
somewhere, maybe just in an alleyway
and just pay play bay Blades in an

930
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:22,760
alleyway and yes, of course we
have to get a bag of dicks.

931
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:27,840
Sure, yeah, yeah, God, why did I wait? Wait,

932
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:30,360
wait what? Because I just,
uh, that's what it was. Because

933
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:34,440
I searched packs West and my email
and the first thing I saw was a

934
01:02:34,519 --> 01:02:37,119
bomb cast emails you said eat a
bag of dicks and then parentheses in a

935
01:02:37,199 --> 01:02:40,440
nice way, and I'm like,
that's what that was. There's a restaurant

936
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:44,760
called dicks. Okay, I'm I'm
caught up on the joke. You were

937
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:49,280
joking around about this. You're you're
the dick driver last time. Yeah,

938
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,639
I listen, I love to drive
the dick. But now I just forgot.

939
01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:53,880
Now I'm caught up again. I
just had to like do my mental

940
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:58,599
inner monologue out loud on a podcast, because that's work, understand, fair,

941
01:02:58,679 --> 01:03:01,599
fair, We work out problems inner
monologues all on the Giant bomb Cast

942
01:03:01,639 --> 01:03:07,000
and we make bold declarations. Man. Maybe, oh God, why did

943
01:03:07,079 --> 01:03:10,760
I say that. I'm saying,
okay, it's okay, I will help

944
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:15,920
you finish this game channel you see, you know the thing is what's wrong?

945
01:03:16,159 --> 01:03:19,599
No, No, because I don't
want to. I don't want to

946
01:03:19,599 --> 01:03:22,079
spoil too much. I don't want
to spoil it too much. There will

947
01:03:22,119 --> 01:03:24,079
be fun times on the way to
packs and at packs. I look forward

948
01:03:24,119 --> 01:03:30,320
to seeing all of your beautiful faces
there. Yeah, it'll be good hair

949
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,239
beats. All right. Well,
we're gonna take a quick break as I

950
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:38,639
think about my words and deeds and
the ramifications of them, and then we'll

951
01:03:38,639 --> 01:03:50,440
be back with some news news.
This is the news of the show.

952
01:03:52,039 --> 01:04:00,320
Grubmo, Hi got I got news
for everybody. Uh, Starfield out in

953
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,039
a couple of weeks. You know
what that means. It's time for it's

954
01:04:02,119 --> 01:04:08,360
time for everyone to freak out and
have some puddle news. Pete Hines is

955
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:14,079
telling fans to r e lax,
relax because Starfield fud is really just it's

956
01:04:14,159 --> 01:04:16,719
up and out there. People are
they have fears, they have uncertainties,

957
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:20,719
and they have doubts, and it
is just getting scripting people. For example,

958
01:04:20,719 --> 01:04:24,679
a couple of sites, we're reporting
that Starfield review codes we're not going

959
01:04:24,719 --> 01:04:27,800
to go out until September first.
That is the same day that it goes

960
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:30,000
out for early access. If you
pay like the extra fee to get one

961
01:04:30,039 --> 01:04:33,000
of the collector's editions, you can
begin playing the game on September first.

962
01:04:33,039 --> 01:04:35,360
So they were everyone's like, oh
my god, we're not gonna have reviews

963
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:41,599
in time. This isn't true,
according to a bunch of other sites.

964
01:04:41,599 --> 01:04:44,159
I wouldn't know anything about that,
but a lot of other sites are implying

965
01:04:44,199 --> 01:04:46,360
that we may be getting review codes
much earlier, maybe by the end of

966
01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:49,719
this week. Again, who who
could say for sure, But there's no

967
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:54,119
way to know. I certainly do
not know, but the a lot of

968
01:04:54,119 --> 01:04:57,239
sites are saying that. At the
same time, people were like, hey,

969
01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:00,039
Pete Hines, why do you keep
talking about these chairs that are based

970
01:05:00,039 --> 01:05:03,760
on Starfield. We want to know
that the game has gone gold, which

971
01:05:06,119 --> 01:05:10,440
anymore, right, it doesn't mean
anything, Okay, it means something.

972
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,280
It does mean that you have a
gold master that you sent to the disc

973
01:05:13,679 --> 01:05:16,039
manufacturing plant that is going to be
the version that goes on on discs.

974
01:05:16,119 --> 01:05:20,679
There's a gold Master. That's what
means. Yes, that's what going gold

975
01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:25,559
used to mean. It still means
that. It just it doesn't mean a

976
01:05:25,559 --> 01:05:29,400
lot for us in terms of like
people playing games, because the games are

977
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,519
continue to get updates through the first
several days of release, and it's just

978
01:05:32,599 --> 01:05:35,480
they're still going to be working on
the game. They're they're not all going

979
01:05:35,519 --> 01:05:41,360
home and taking vacations yet, but
pans. Basically, his response is that,

980
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:43,480
like, take a deep breath.
I have an amazing team. We

981
01:05:43,559 --> 01:05:45,679
know what we're doing, so it's
just like again, just relax. We're

982
01:05:45,679 --> 01:05:48,039
figuring out where we haven't told you
it's gone gold because it's we don't think

983
01:05:48,039 --> 01:05:51,199
it's very important, or it might
not have happened yet. Games don't have

984
01:05:51,239 --> 01:05:55,480
to go gold up until about a
week before they actually go in source.

985
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,719
And for people who can't read between
the lines, what Pete is actually saying,

986
01:06:00,239 --> 01:06:02,320
get fucked nerds. Yeah, okay, basically, yeah, it's because

987
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,639
it's he knows, he knows it's
puddle news. He knows that this is

988
01:06:04,639 --> 01:06:09,920
just people anxieties about something that they're
excited for, that they're getting ready to

989
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:13,400
spend money on. And it's just
it's a natural thing that happens more and

990
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:15,679
more with games and habits, with
games that are good, bad and everything

991
01:06:15,719 --> 01:06:18,800
in between. We just don't know
until we're actually playing the game. But

992
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:23,039
yeah, I don't know, like, how is everyone feeling about Starfield right

993
01:06:23,079 --> 01:06:25,800
now? Do you or do you
even have feelings about it? Because I

994
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,119
put it into a little compartment where
it's like, I'm not even gonna think

995
01:06:28,119 --> 01:06:29,960
about it until I'm playing it.
I don't know. Yeah, I put

996
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:31,639
it away like you did. Yeah, yeah, that's in my pocket.

997
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:36,559
Yeah. I love those controllers though, I got my note over there in

998
01:06:36,559 --> 01:06:43,480
my chair out. They have a
nice color scheme watch that they announced is

999
01:06:43,519 --> 01:06:47,159
really neat looking. But I don't
need to watch. Yes, some people

1000
01:06:47,239 --> 01:06:51,679
might begin to watch. Who could
say, come on, man? Who

1001
01:06:51,679 --> 01:06:56,159
could say that they maybe got that
email and then didn't didn't tell back lar

1002
01:06:56,199 --> 01:07:00,119
about its took it themselves. Who
could say I couldn't say, well,

1003
01:07:00,119 --> 01:07:02,559
why shouldn't I get it over you? I don't understand that I'm saying I

1004
01:07:02,599 --> 01:07:08,559
got the stranded in space? Who
else would it go to? I?

1005
01:07:08,719 --> 01:07:15,199
Oh, I boffman? You know
anyway? Yes, So other than like

1006
01:07:15,239 --> 01:07:16,840
getting excited, like hey, eventually
we're gonna be playing this game pretty soon,

1007
01:07:18,239 --> 01:07:21,039
Yes, not much to think about
because I don't know. People want

1008
01:07:21,079 --> 01:07:25,360
to have opinions about stuff before they
played it. But that's pretty dumb.

1009
01:07:25,639 --> 01:07:28,760
Don't do that. You could just
wait a couple more days and figure it

1010
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:30,239
out for yourself when you once you've
actually gotten your hands on it, and

1011
01:07:30,239 --> 01:07:32,039
it's in game pass, so you
don't even have to like pay a lot

1012
01:07:32,039 --> 01:07:38,800
to do that. Bolters Gate three
almost surpassed Hogwart Legacy Hogwarts Legacies Steam record

1013
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:43,960
uh ten days post release. Balder's
Gate three record peaked at concurrent players of

1014
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,199
eight hundred and seventy five thousand,
three hundred and forty three. That's according

1015
01:07:46,239 --> 01:07:51,559
the Steam database. The popularity boosted
by Leian STOs, RPG reputation and influencers

1016
01:07:51,599 --> 01:07:57,519
pushing simultaneous online play. Basically the
game is just catching on everywhere. It's

1017
01:07:57,559 --> 01:08:00,719
catching on on social media, it's
catching on on Twitch, it's catching on

1018
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:04,000
in like people's discords, and that
word of mouth has just really set fire

1019
01:08:04,039 --> 01:08:08,519
to the game, and it's it's
got very close to Hogwarts Legacies eight hundred

1020
01:08:08,559 --> 01:08:12,440
and seventy nine thousand, three hundred
and eight concurrent players, so basically like

1021
01:08:12,559 --> 01:08:15,880
right in that same range, like
they're almost tied, which is the eighth

1022
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,359
highest of all time on Steam,
but the highest for this year was Hogwarts

1023
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:21,800
Legacy. Other games that might have
like, like, if you're like looking

1024
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:24,720
for a point of comparison, oh, it's the eighth highest. Ever,

1025
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:28,399
what else what other games have done
really well? A pub player Unknowns Battlegrounds

1026
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:32,479
one time had three point two five
million concurrent players. Cyberpunk has the record

1027
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:36,840
for single player games with one point
zero five million concurrent players all at one

1028
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:41,760
time, So nothing quite to that
level. Yet the idea that Boulder's Gate

1029
01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:45,079
three is even anywhere close to that
is still surprising to me. So a

1030
01:08:45,119 --> 01:08:47,640
lot of people playing it, and
like, what do you guys like chalk

1031
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,600
that up to because there was I
didn't see a big marketing campaign. It

1032
01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:56,960
really is just people talking about it
right purely that it feels like and then

1033
01:08:57,079 --> 01:09:02,640
just maybe not maybe bouncing off Diablo
four, uh and not having like a

1034
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:06,600
fantasy style game, you know.
I think we've talked about it on Game

1035
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:10,880
Miss Mornings a couple of times.
But D and D has also grown in

1036
01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:15,479
a major way in popularity. Like
there's there's DND podcasts for every type of

1037
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:21,600
flavor of DND, right yep,
except a wrestling based quest of DND.

1038
01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:26,840
As far as I know, I
you know, I've seen some headlines on

1039
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:28,880
about this. I haven't had a
chance to read the stories. But also

1040
01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:33,239
it does feel like sort of the
horniness finding it's footing in the mainstream in

1041
01:09:33,239 --> 01:09:36,319
a really strong way. Obviously the
bear fucking everyone points out, and I

1042
01:09:36,319 --> 01:09:42,640
don't I don't think anyone's joking when
they like making something that feels like an

1043
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:47,319
online slash vic or even like a
grocery store like romance novel, but treating

1044
01:09:47,359 --> 01:09:50,199
it with a ton of care and
presenting it in a way that's like,

1045
01:09:50,399 --> 01:09:54,880
of course you want to be playing
in this universe with and then like you

1046
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:58,520
know, playing with you sexual ideas, like that's sub stuff that is like

1047
01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,760
I think, really appealing and has
had a lot of chance to feel acceptable.

1048
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:04,199
And this game has really gone a
long way towards doing that, I

1049
01:10:04,199 --> 01:10:06,800
think, and it's getting it's reaping
the rewards. Yeah. I mean,

1050
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:13,000
it's like folks that say movies shouldn't
have romance scenes or any intimacy, right

1051
01:10:13,119 --> 01:10:15,439
because it does nothing for the plot. And it's like, well it,

1052
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:18,720
go fuck yourself exactly, exactly,
go touch grass and I'm not going to

1053
01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:23,800
finish that, right, But like, you know, having that type of

1054
01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:28,479
thing in a game, it adds
to like people's escapism, right sure of

1055
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:31,640
Like, hey, I walked in
on a very intimate scene between an ogre

1056
01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:38,760
and another ogre. Oh yeah,
I would like to see that. I

1057
01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:42,359
cannot get anyone to have sex with
my character though I don't know what I

1058
01:10:42,399 --> 01:10:45,600
did wrong. No one likes her. They're like like a star On was

1059
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,199
like, oh, yes, I'm
very interested in hooking up, just not

1060
01:10:48,319 --> 01:10:53,079
with you obviously, like you said
it like that, and I was like,

1061
01:10:53,279 --> 01:10:56,520
okay, man, are you feeling
the like boner rolls? Like,

1062
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:06,680
what's going on here? Feeling every
boner roll shit? Can weds? Failing

1063
01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:10,239
boner rolls? Yeah, I think
we can do that. Failing boner rolls

1064
01:11:10,319 --> 01:11:13,279
is absolutely acceptable. Okay, all
right, right there you go. You

1065
01:11:13,319 --> 01:11:15,640
heard it. Yeah, your boner's
stats. All right, let's see where

1066
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:18,840
am I at. We now know
who Embracers failed two billion dollars deal was

1067
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:25,000
with Swedish companies. Major deal collapsed
unexpectedly and unexpectedly in May, leading to

1068
01:11:25,159 --> 01:11:30,039
a significant reduction and it's earnings forecast
AXIO. So Steven Totelo over there did

1069
01:11:30,079 --> 01:11:32,920
some reporting and identified that the party
was Savvy, which is, of course,

1070
01:11:33,039 --> 01:11:38,239
Saudi Arabia's game group. Embracers CEO
stated the deal broke down after seven

1071
01:11:38,239 --> 01:11:41,399
months of negotiations and it would have
been worth two billion dollars and then that

1072
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:47,520
money just whoop went away overnight.
There's no direct explanation of why Savvy pulled

1073
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:50,239
out, why they were like,
we're going to drop this this deal.

1074
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:55,840
We could speculate that maybe they're not
so certain about Embracer's future, and I

1075
01:11:55,880 --> 01:12:00,399
think everyone that's a pretty easy assumption
to make. That is that became reality

1076
01:12:00,439 --> 01:12:01,680
as soon as they steal stopped,
like what was it didn't go through,

1077
01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:05,760
Embracer was in a in serious trouble. Now they're in cost cutting mode.

1078
01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:12,239
But also it just feels like,
I don't know, Saudi Arabia might also

1079
01:12:12,279 --> 01:12:15,079
be second guessing, like their strategy
of in sending money all over the place

1080
01:12:15,319 --> 01:12:18,000
into all these games studios, but
maybe not. Maybe it's just Embracer as

1081
01:12:18,039 --> 01:12:23,560
a specific example. Do you guys
think Embracer group gonna still be a thing

1082
01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:28,479
in a couple of years. That's
a really difficult thing. You're just sort

1083
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,680
of throwing darts at a dartboard here. Yeah, it's it's it's really yes,

1084
01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:35,800
because who I mean, they could
always skate by. But I mean,

1085
01:12:36,359 --> 01:12:39,399
I don't know, it feels like
the same at the same time that

1086
01:12:39,399 --> 01:12:42,840
they might just try to fire sale
and get their way out of there because

1087
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:46,319
it's tough to imagine a future where
they are making enough games to pay for

1088
01:12:46,399 --> 01:12:53,039
all that they have going on is
a lot. Yeah, divesting makes sense,

1089
01:12:53,079 --> 01:12:57,159
I think, uh, you know
they have so they've had some successful

1090
01:12:57,199 --> 01:13:00,239
games. None are coming to mind
right now. I know for fact,

1091
01:13:00,239 --> 01:13:01,840
they had a couple this year that
did very well, like surprisingly good,

1092
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:08,439
but they like in the fall out
of that, they were like, this,

1093
01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:11,479
we still ought to cut costs because
we're nowhere near make enough profit even

1094
01:13:11,479 --> 01:13:14,239
though we had we do have these
successful games, and it's like okay,

1095
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,199
So they they would have to have
like ten times the amount of successful games

1096
01:13:17,199 --> 01:13:19,800
for this whole thing to make sense. And that's that's where it makes it

1097
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:25,159
seem like divesting is maybe their only
option or selling to someone else. That

1098
01:13:25,239 --> 01:13:30,680
is in Saudi Arabia Assassins, there's
a Creed Mirage is coming early. You'd

1099
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,560
bestoft to move to Assassin's Creed Mirage
released to October fifth, from its original

1100
01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:38,159
date of October twelfth. It's coming
to PC, PlayStation, an Xbox.

1101
01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:42,239
This does help it get out ahead
of allen Wick two, Spider Man two

1102
01:13:42,239 --> 01:13:45,720
in Super Mario Brothers Wonder, which
we're all coming out basically around the exact

1103
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:48,039
same time, and I think if
one of those games had to move,

1104
01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:51,560
it was probably right. That's Assassin's
Creed Mirage, right, that felt like

1105
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:55,199
the one that was going to get
forgotten out of those games. I don't

1106
01:13:55,199 --> 01:13:58,079
know what do you guys have a
tier list? If you asked me what

1107
01:13:58,239 --> 01:14:02,039
the subtitle of Assassin's Creed was like
yesterday, I don't think I could do

1108
01:14:02,079 --> 01:14:06,840
it for millions. I think that
I've had multiple people in games Mornings who

1109
01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:12,000
I know we've talked about Mirage before
and be like, what is that?

1110
01:14:12,119 --> 01:14:14,720
We have to like look it up
and stuff like multiple times. Now.

1111
01:14:15,039 --> 01:14:18,359
I would have lost every bet.
Oh god, yeah, you would have

1112
01:14:18,359 --> 01:14:21,520
had to shade your head. I
would have had a grown up I would

1113
01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:26,800
have grown out all my hair.
Uh. It's crazy that I don't that

1114
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,119
I did not remember what that was, but yeah, obviously it needs to

1115
01:14:30,119 --> 01:14:32,279
get out of the way. Yeah, I just uh, for me,

1116
01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:35,640
I would play Alan Wick two,
Spider Man two, and Super Mario Brothers

1117
01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:41,560
Wonder all before Assassin's Cream Mirage.
And I'm a little bit interested in Assassin's

1118
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:45,000
Cream Rage. Yeah. Yeah,
I'm Assassin's Creed Curious all over again.

1119
01:14:45,079 --> 01:14:49,079
But I would sooner Circle back to
something like Hi Fi Rush or Octopath.

1120
01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:55,920
Wow, that's I praise Bailey.
When you're like sketch sketching out like a

1121
01:14:55,960 --> 01:15:00,159
general schedule for doing honest games trailers. Do you like look at the these

1122
01:15:00,199 --> 01:15:01,760
games and like this one standout is
the one that you have to do first?

1123
01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:10,920
Or oh god, I mean we
want it there. The timing of

1124
01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:14,600
it is really just about like it's
not really about like which one do I

1125
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,600
want to do first? But which
one do I think I can finish first?

1126
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:20,279
And like the order. I have
another writer who works with me,

1127
01:15:20,319 --> 01:15:25,560
who takes the lead on scripts every
other week, right, and so it's

1128
01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:29,239
divvying up, like he has to
do Alan Wake because it's a scary game,

1129
01:15:29,279 --> 01:15:30,159
so I'm not going to be able
to get through the way he can.

1130
01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:38,399
And the month of October, huh, I'm gonna I'm dying, is

1131
01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:41,960
what I'm doing. I'm just playing
a million games all at once and not

1132
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:45,960
seeing anyone I know, and just
trying so hard to write jokes about them,

1133
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:48,000
but then forgetting how jokes works,
and then reading all the comments and

1134
01:15:48,039 --> 01:15:54,079
getting sack is no one thinks funny. I've never I've never played Fatal Frame

1135
01:15:54,119 --> 01:15:57,479
and I've always been very curious about
Fatal Frame. Uh. You know,

1136
01:15:57,520 --> 01:16:01,720
I'm also a scaredy cat. You
know, maybe maybe I can convince you

1137
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:06,039
various game I can play. His
inscription. I'm just so afraid all the

1138
01:16:06,119 --> 01:16:11,239
time with video games and I and
I love horror movies and TV shows.

1139
01:16:11,239 --> 01:16:13,880
But if it's there's a big horror
game coming out, I'd give it to

1140
01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:16,439
the other guy. I can't do
it. I've a coward's heart. That's

1141
01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:20,079
that's surprising. I know a few
people who have similar behavior where they're like,

1142
01:16:20,279 --> 01:16:25,039
we I love horror, yet cannot
play horror video games. Yeah,

1143
01:16:25,079 --> 01:16:29,560
I need that fourth wall division between
me and the horror. If there's like

1144
01:16:30,239 --> 01:16:32,800
a horror I have to actively participate
in, I simply will not do it.

1145
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:34,800
I'll be like, well, the
way to not do the horrors to

1146
01:16:35,319 --> 01:16:45,319
hide underneath this table or whatever they
play? Yeah, exactly can't. Yeah,

1147
01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,039
people people do fall into these different
like like buckets, right, Like

1148
01:16:48,039 --> 01:16:50,479
some people like I don't like the
horror movies, but the games I can

1149
01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:53,840
play, And yeah, there's like
me, it was like, I'm just

1150
01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:57,239
scared of everything everything, Franzy.
I'd rather I will see a horror movie

1151
01:16:57,279 --> 01:17:00,319
like in a theater, so then
the ghost isn't in my house. And

1152
01:17:00,319 --> 01:17:03,079
but playing a video game, it
just feels like, I don't know,

1153
01:17:03,119 --> 01:17:06,039
it's gonna look at me them and
say my name out loud and then I'm

1154
01:17:06,039 --> 01:17:12,119
gonna die or something. That'd be
something active. I'm actively antagonizing any and

1155
01:17:12,159 --> 01:17:15,760
every ghost I can come across.
Ohis goes off, dude, piss them

1156
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,119
off? Yeah, I mean,
why else are they there? If they

1157
01:17:18,119 --> 01:17:20,159
didn't want to be pissed off,
they would have left, you know,

1158
01:17:20,319 --> 01:17:24,439
opinion. I saw that sketch on
I think you should leave, and it's

1159
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:28,319
just resonated with me ever since.
Yeah, of course, yeah, you

1160
01:17:28,319 --> 01:17:30,600
can see whatever you want. It's
all adults here, so maarage. Coming

1161
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:34,560
out October five, THQ as a
new south Park game, which, oh

1162
01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:39,560
boy, sound familiar because boy,
they had a the THQ you used to

1163
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:43,680
have South Park games. THQ Nordic
announced new South Park game, south Park

1164
01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:47,520

stream, which THQ Nordic but basically updated

1165
01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:49,399
all their other games. And this
is like, I think the one new

1166
01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:53,920
game that they had. It's a

four players, the guys, Cartman
Stand, Kyle and Kenny, the boys.

1170
01:18:08,239 --> 01:18:10,840
What do each of them sound like? Do impressions? Right now?

1171
01:18:11,399 --> 01:18:16,600
They just sound like normal human men. That's what they saw men. Huh.

1172
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:19,359
They're four player's. Four players go
out to save the world on a

1173
01:18:19,399 --> 01:18:23,760
snow day? What does that mean? I don't know. Is it like

1174
01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:29,920
a hard mood movie? But so
deep cut? I had the soundtrack to

1175
01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:32,239
that on CD and it was fine. We haven't been good enough to deserve

1176
01:18:32,279 --> 01:18:36,520
anything related to Josh Josh Peck's snow
Day, So no, it's completely different.

1177
01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:43,560
Yes. The other title for Oppenheimer, Uh, Stick of Truth,

1178
01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:46,119
came out in twenty fourteen, was
well received. Good Guess came out after

1179
01:18:46,159 --> 01:18:51,039
that was about this received about the
same, actually a little bit of lower

1180
01:18:51,079 --> 01:18:55,079
review scores, but just a touch. But both of those were you be

1181
01:18:55,119 --> 01:18:59,600
Soft after You'd be Soft acquired the
rights to these in the fire sale the

1182
01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:04,199
last time THQ went under. So
now South Park back at THHQ where it

1183
01:19:04,239 --> 01:19:09,479
belongs. It does feel like that's
the right fit because south Park is just

1184
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:11,840
like, you know, the same
sort of vibe as at least the games

1185
01:19:12,239 --> 01:19:15,079
as like those Nickelodeon licensed games at
THHQ used to do as well. So

1186
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:19,800
yeah, we're getting it. I
can I ask the bacclar you and I

1187
01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:23,760
kind of grew up at a time
when south Park was coming to prominence and

1188
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:27,399
you weren't too far behind. Bailey, you like, what do you guys

1189
01:19:27,399 --> 01:19:34,560
feel about south Park as a property? Okay, here, I'll be brave,

1190
01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,920
I'll be brave. I'm all over, I'm all over the place with

1191
01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,159
it right now. I don't like
it, and I just don't like it

1192
01:19:41,199 --> 01:19:44,800
at all anymore. Here watched it
recently, But yeah, I enjoy family

1193
01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:48,720
guy more. Okay, I mean
I have nothing and everything at the same

1194
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:51,800
time. I'm curious to hear it. Yeah, yeah, way to not

1195
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:58,319
answer that, Bailey, would you. I'm curious to hear your guys.

1196
01:20:00,239 --> 01:20:04,960
I was never a south Park person
to begin with, and I think in

1197
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:11,840
the year of Our Lord twenty twenty
three, anyone who's still watching south Park,

1198
01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:15,760
well, I'm sure they're a very
nice person. Maybe has the sense

1199
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:19,319
of humor of someone from several decades
ago, like a time traveler, except

1200
01:20:19,319 --> 01:20:23,119
for they haven't time traveled. They've
been here the whole time. They've just

1201
01:20:23,199 --> 01:20:28,119
chosen not to grow as an individual. That seems cutting him. Probably true.

1202
01:20:28,239 --> 01:20:30,239
I mean, I don't find it
very fun anymore. That is my

1203
01:20:30,239 --> 01:20:32,600
big issue with it anymore. Right, So, less time watched it.

1204
01:20:33,199 --> 01:20:36,359
I tried it definitely in the last
year. I watched it for the first

1205
01:20:36,359 --> 01:20:40,119
time in like, probably like ten
years it had been, and I'm like,

1206
01:20:40,359 --> 01:20:43,239
I can't remember what happened. Maybe
it was the Casa Bunita stuff where

1207
01:20:43,279 --> 01:20:45,840
they bought that restaurant in Denver that
I was always interesting because I was living

1208
01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:47,119
in the area, and I'm like, oh, I should check in on

1209
01:20:47,119 --> 01:20:50,119
South Park. And I watched one
of the new episodes and I just didn't

1210
01:20:50,119 --> 01:20:53,560
find it very funny at all.
And so I was like, man,

1211
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:57,199
I do remember enjoying this more.
But I don't know if the show got

1212
01:20:57,239 --> 01:21:00,960
worse or if if if I've grown
as an individual. I've heard I've heard

1213
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:04,199
so many conflicting reports, right,
Like, it does seem to be this

1214
01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:11,960
very sort of like dubious entity,
right where like I just can't make heads

1215
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,159
or tails of it. I know
there was a time where like it was

1216
01:21:15,279 --> 01:21:21,079
must watch weekly viewing for sure,
and I was definitely yeah, like it

1217
01:21:21,159 --> 01:21:25,000
was, it was there was a
I was around for that, like for

1218
01:21:25,079 --> 01:21:29,279
sure. But I don't know.
I think, like I think there were

1219
01:21:29,279 --> 01:21:31,399
like a couple of seasons where like
it really kind of had something to say.

1220
01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:36,199
And I'm talking like fifteen years ago. Yeah, but yeah, I

1221
01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:40,680
don't. I don't know. I
think Book of Mormon is very good.

1222
01:21:43,039 --> 01:21:47,399
Yeah, like basketball is fun,
right, yeah, but yeah, you

1223
01:21:47,399 --> 01:21:51,199
know, I don't put it in
like this bad category though. I don't

1224
01:21:51,199 --> 01:21:56,119
put it in like this sort of
like I can't allow that to exist kind

1225
01:21:56,119 --> 01:22:00,640
of category. Yeah, I'm say
things shouldn't exist. I didn't say that

1226
01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:04,119
funny. No, No, I
wasn't saying that you were doing that.

1227
01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:09,000
I'm taking a hard stand here and
saying any media I don't like should be

1228
01:22:09,039 --> 01:22:14,000
wiped off the face of That's actually
not the worst. That's actually not the

1229
01:22:14,039 --> 01:22:16,520
worst idea. No, like I
do, but I do. At the

1230
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:20,600
same time, I do think there
is comedy that like is remarkably a sort

1231
01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:25,279
of ageless. I don't think South
Park is necessarily that though, but I

1232
01:22:25,359 --> 01:22:29,359
do think there is comedy out there
that the Spans episode when Homer gets hired

1233
01:22:29,359 --> 01:22:32,800
by Hank Scorpio, like Simpsons,
I think magically pulls it off. Like

1234
01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:36,800
I'm definitely Yeah. I've never seen
any South Park clips on TikTok and I've

1235
01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:40,880
seen a lot of Family Guy on
there, so yeah, but it might

1236
01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:44,600
not have broken through yet, right, it could be and it's just not

1237
01:22:44,680 --> 01:22:48,279
in my algorithm. Yeah, I
used to hold Family Guy in incredibly high.

1238
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:57,359
I got a baby talks that's wild
and talks. What When Grub and

1239
01:22:57,399 --> 01:23:00,840
I were in college was the time
where Family Guy like was originally canceled.

1240
01:23:01,159 --> 01:23:06,680
So like if you had those DVDs, you were like you like we watched

1241
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:10,680
on DVD, but then like Adult
Swim started airing it. It's like,

1242
01:23:10,760 --> 01:23:13,880
and then everyone started watching it and
that was brought it back. Yeah.

1243
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:18,119
Uh, all right, let's see
Netflix is adding game streaming to TV.

1244
01:23:18,359 --> 01:23:21,600
It's it's it's weird. They're doing
a limited beta test starting in Canada and

1245
01:23:21,640 --> 01:23:27,439
the UK on select TVs from select
manufacturers, and that's beginning today. It's

1246
01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:30,800
also coming to PC and Max as
well. The initial test will include Oxen

1247
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:35,159
Free and Mule Hugh's Minate Adventure.
Let's just stick with ox and Free.

1248
01:23:35,199 --> 01:23:38,039
You might be wondering, how do
you play this? How do you interact

1249
01:23:38,079 --> 01:23:42,439
with it? You're probably gonna ConnectR
xbox controller, right, No, you're

1250
01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:48,760
gonna phone as a controller. Fu
adding though as much so Oxy Free does

1251
01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:53,520
make sense. That's right, that's
one that would work. But that is

1252
01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:57,159
not solution for most other games.
But they do show it's like it's gonna

1253
01:23:57,159 --> 01:24:00,199
have a digital digital analog stick digital
right there on your phone. You're gonna

1254
01:24:00,199 --> 01:24:05,199
hold it like that. I just
don't know who that's for so much,

1255
01:24:05,239 --> 01:24:08,720
but I mean, if it's for
somebody, they're testing it, you know,

1256
01:24:09,159 --> 01:24:13,319
I would never have thought people there's
a good chunk of people that use

1257
01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:16,199
the apps on a smart TV,
let alone use a smart TV. But

1258
01:24:16,319 --> 01:24:19,840
like that's a big audience. It's
a huge audience. Yes, And I

1259
01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:23,760
think, like, I don't know, I do think the time of like

1260
01:24:23,800 --> 01:24:27,680
they're all broken is a bit over
right, Yeah, they were were just

1261
01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:30,640
everyone's just using Roku or Google TV. And yeah, although I fucking hate

1262
01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:35,079
Roku's I think they suck. I
think they're terrible. I prefer no.

1263
01:24:35,359 --> 01:24:41,920
I'm I moved out of Rocus City. The value my property value is plummeted.

1264
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:45,239
Yeah, it's crazy. I think
Roku's garbage. I don't know why

1265
01:24:45,279 --> 01:24:47,800
that was ever really super popular.
Maybe because it was like the first one

1266
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:53,319
to the part definitely was better than
built in like the LG web os or

1267
01:24:53,319 --> 01:24:56,239
whatever that they usure. It was
better than that for a while, but

1268
01:24:56,319 --> 01:24:59,319
that stuff has caught up and it's
mostly fine. Yeah. And but but

1269
01:24:59,359 --> 01:25:02,039
to the idea of like why is
Netflix doing this? You know, like

1270
01:25:02,159 --> 01:25:09,479
when you have your module installed on
like one hundred million televisions by default,

1271
01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:13,479
like you gotta figure out a way
to sneak it in there, right,

1272
01:25:13,520 --> 01:25:16,920
Like it's already there, right,
So this is them like looking forward diversification.

1273
01:25:17,159 --> 01:25:21,079
They are they pretty much tapped out
what is physically possible for them to

1274
01:25:21,079 --> 01:25:24,399
do with the amount of money that
they're going to spend on content for movies

1275
01:25:24,399 --> 01:25:28,319
and TV and the growth they're just
going to his plateau. It's plateau they

1276
01:25:28,319 --> 01:25:30,279
started dipping and they're like, okay, well, we're some categories we can

1277
01:25:30,279 --> 01:25:34,000
grow in. They've identified games as
one of those potential areas. It's just

1278
01:25:34,039 --> 01:25:38,039
like what does that look like?
And they're slow they're doing a slow burn

1279
01:25:38,119 --> 01:25:43,960
compared to Google and don't even remember
what it was called Stadia. Stadia compared

1280
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,199
to what Google do with Stadia,
where it's like we're going to completely replace

1281
01:25:46,199 --> 01:25:50,439
your controls and everything's gonna be different. Yes, I just got the fund

1282
01:25:50,119 --> 01:25:55,800
Stadiah did wow. Yeah, because
I had it connected to like an old

1283
01:25:55,840 --> 01:25:59,720
credit card or something. I uh, I bought like a couple of games

1284
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:00,359
on there. They sent me everything
else, So I don't know. I

1285
01:26:00,359 --> 01:26:03,279
don't even know if I went through
the steps to get a refund. But

1286
01:26:03,359 --> 01:26:06,840
Netflix is like just trying to see
if they can figure this out without spending

1287
01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:10,359
a ton of money up front.
So these tests are fine. I just

1288
01:26:10,880 --> 01:26:14,560
I would be curious to hear who
is playing Oxo free on on their TV

1289
01:26:14,680 --> 01:26:16,920
using a Phonus controller. I bet
it's going to be people that don't run

1290
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,640
in the same circles as me.
And that's that's fine if that's how that's

1291
01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:24,079
gonna work. But I just sit
with the cool kids at lunch, Jeff,

1292
01:26:24,159 --> 01:26:26,720
is that what you're saying? Yeah, No, with the cool people

1293
01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:30,479
who are like, yeah, don't
don't have a video game controllers like filed

1294
01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:35,119
across their home and stuff. Yeah. I do always wonder like what is

1295
01:26:35,199 --> 01:26:38,680
like this seems like the problem,
how do you, like, you could

1296
01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,000
beam whatever you want to a person's
TV. How are they going to interact

1297
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:45,600
with it? The controller is the
actual problem for a company's like Netflix and

1298
01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:48,720
even like Xbox wanting to stream stuff
to people's TVs, Like, are people

1299
01:26:48,760 --> 01:26:50,279
even going to go through the effort
like we, oh, yeah, they

1300
01:26:50,279 --> 01:26:53,359
have a PlayStation five and they want
to play an x fix game, We'll

1301
01:26:53,399 --> 01:26:56,359
just stream it to your TV?
Are they even going to connect their PS

1302
01:26:56,399 --> 01:26:59,520
five controller to their TV to play
your game? I bet most people think

1303
01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:00,399
them, That's too much of a
hassle. I'm not going to do that.

1304
01:27:00,560 --> 01:27:03,880
So Netflix is trying to find an
easier solution there. I don't blame

1305
01:27:03,880 --> 01:27:08,239
them, I just don't know if
this is the right answer. Metroid dread

1306
01:27:08,359 --> 01:27:14,279
developer has two unannounced games. Mercury
Steam developing two undisclosed titles information from earnings

1307
01:27:14,279 --> 01:27:18,760
of Nordisc Games, a minority stakeholder
in Mercury Steam. One of the suspected

1308
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:23,720
games is a fantasy game with five
or five publisher five or five games that's

1309
01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:27,479
been previously like talked about, even
if it hasn't been fully announced yet.

1310
01:27:28,079 --> 01:27:32,039
The other one everyone is assuming is
likely a Metroid Dread sequel or some sort

1311
01:27:32,079 --> 01:27:35,439
of follow up, but that's an
assumption. There's no confirmation there, although

1312
01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:38,800
I'm getting my hopes stuff because I
think that would make a lot of sense.

1313
01:27:39,359 --> 01:27:43,359
This is the studio that did make
Metroid Dread, and that's the best

1314
01:27:43,479 --> 01:27:45,319
selling Metroid game ever now. It
sold more than three million copies. No

1315
01:27:45,399 --> 01:27:49,159
Metroid has ever sold better than that, So you could assume that they probably

1316
01:27:49,159 --> 01:27:53,000
will want to continue that partnership,
and I hope they do. Even though

1317
01:27:53,039 --> 01:27:58,720
there were some reports of chaotic development
at Mercury Steam, they've denied that,

1318
01:27:58,960 --> 01:28:03,439
although it's probably you know, allegually
it happened. Maybe probably did, and

1319
01:28:03,600 --> 01:28:06,319
you know, hopefully they can iron
that stuff out and just kind of keep

1320
01:28:06,359 --> 01:28:10,560
this partnership going because those games were
good, and you know, chaotic development

1321
01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:14,560
habits seemingly every studio. So hopefully
it's like, identify the problems, deal

1322
01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:16,760
with them, make a better game
next time. That would be fantastic.

1323
01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:20,640
I don't know, everyone here a
Metroid Dread fans. I liked it a

1324
01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:26,399
lot, Yeah, yeah, I
don't. I've really really really enjoyed that

1325
01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:29,479
game, So hoping that we get
more of it, that would be very

1326
01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:35,439
cool. Rock Star acquires role playing
tools. Rockstar Games has acquired CFX dot

1327
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:40,720
R, the creators of the popular
GTA five and Red Dead Redemption two modding

1328
01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:45,760
tools. Dot r is behind rock
Stars role playing community five M and red

1329
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:48,680
MU. The official notts of it
showed up on rock Star's website, where

1330
01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:53,920
they praised the creative community for rock
Star Games for expanding what's possible in the

1331
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:58,920
games. They recognize the dedicated role
playing servers growth and they are and they've

1332
01:28:58,960 --> 01:29:01,520
also confirmed that they're going to expand
mod policy to kind of incorporate this stuff

1333
01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:05,159
going forward, something that has been
a problem in the past where rock Star

1334
01:29:05,279 --> 01:29:10,640
tried to basically crush these these role
playing mods and accuse them of like cheating

1335
01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:13,840
and stuff like that. That got
settled out of court at one point,

1336
01:29:14,119 --> 01:29:16,680
and so since then they've been on
like this, this equilibrium between the two.

1337
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,319
Well, now that's all out the
window. Rock Star is just we

1338
01:29:19,399 --> 01:29:25,039
know we're buying you. This is
has to all be about g TA six

1339
01:29:25,119 --> 01:29:30,279
incorporating role playing stuff from the get
go, right, Yes, yeah,

1340
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:34,640
that stuff is still so incredibly popular
on twitch. Oh my god, I

1341
01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:39,560
always wanted to get into that thing. But that's the time suck that I

1342
01:29:39,600 --> 01:29:44,239
feel like I just don't have either. This is this. I saw this

1343
01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:46,399
late last week, right this news
came out. Maybe that's right. Uh

1344
01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:50,439
really this is I feel like people
might be sleeping on how big of a

1345
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:57,000
deal this is. Yeah, it's
like it's got to look like you'll you'll.

1346
01:29:57,119 --> 01:30:00,159
You open up the game and there's
GT six and the GTA Online and

1347
01:30:00,159 --> 01:30:04,560
I wouldn't be surprised if right next
to gt online is GTA Roleplay but just

1348
01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:08,239
another option. They're on the menu. And it's like there will be a

1349
01:30:08,279 --> 01:30:12,199
ton of approved servers, and I
bet, uh CFX dot RU you know

1350
01:30:12,319 --> 01:30:15,960
this modern group. I bet they
continue to run their own thing, and

1351
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,800
then maybe they bring in like no
Pixel, which is the big server that

1352
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:23,000
all the big content creators are in
that it's very hard to get into.

1353
01:30:23,399 --> 01:30:25,239
They have. I guess they have
a public server as well, but they're

1354
01:30:25,279 --> 01:30:29,079
private one that is the one that
everyone watches. They probably get directly incorporated

1355
01:30:29,119 --> 01:30:33,199
as well. Maybe there's some incentivization
there or something like that. This is

1356
01:30:33,199 --> 01:30:38,159
one of the things that is keeping
GTA six or GT five so relevant that

1357
01:30:38,239 --> 01:30:40,680
of course they were going to want
to bring this in at some point and

1358
01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:43,680
yeah, I just wonder what it
ends up looking like. It's it's a

1359
01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:48,840
big question. Do you guys think
we're playing GTA six next year? Uh?

1360
01:30:50,039 --> 01:31:00,239
Yes, there it is, Shaverhead. Yeah, they iqust just for

1361
01:31:00,359 --> 01:31:04,119
it. Take Take two did say
that they're expecting to make eight billion dollars

1362
01:31:04,119 --> 01:31:06,680
in revenue compared to the five billion, which was a record for them that

1363
01:31:06,680 --> 01:31:11,600
they're making this year. Uh,
it's hard to imagine that's possible without g

1364
01:31:11,760 --> 01:31:14,680
TA six, But they said that's
until March of twenty twenty five, So

1365
01:31:14,720 --> 01:31:16,840
maybe it slips into the first quarter
that year. I guess that's possible as

1366
01:31:16,840 --> 01:31:20,239
well, or gets it gets a
huge delay. It could just get delayed

1367
01:31:20,239 --> 01:31:24,039
as well. Man, they're gonna
they're gonna be rolling in it, grub.

1368
01:31:24,079 --> 01:31:27,439
What aren't we talking about rock Star
saying like, oh, we're we're

1369
01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:32,159
gonna do big numbers in the next
year. This is exactly right. Oh

1370
01:31:32,239 --> 01:31:34,560
man, it's it's it's probably this
in a couple of other things, like

1371
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:38,279
six seven and stuff like that.
A bunch of stuff probably happened at the

1372
01:31:38,319 --> 01:31:43,159
same time. They've never publicly said
anything about g T six, not really,

1373
01:31:43,239 --> 01:31:46,159
not in any real way. I
still feel like that game does get

1374
01:31:46,199 --> 01:31:49,199
announced for next year at some point
or the first quarter at twenty twenty five,

1375
01:31:49,239 --> 01:31:51,880
and then I do think it probably
gets a delay before it actually comes

1376
01:31:51,880 --> 01:31:56,680
out, but we'll see rock Star
pickle Ball. Oh yeah, shit,

1377
01:31:56,960 --> 01:32:01,840
put that out first. That's what
we need. I mean, it's pick

1378
01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:08,520
a ball taking over your community.
It has, especially my wife. But

1379
01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:14,560
I've not I've not like I've still
not played, like I know everything about

1380
01:32:14,600 --> 01:32:17,359
it, sure, but I just
an expert. Yeah, you know,

1381
01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:21,199
just like with Cowboy Bebob, like
barely have to touch it to be an

1382
01:32:21,199 --> 01:32:26,479
expert. I know I'll love it, I because it's just big table tennis.

1383
01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:29,039
But then you to think about,
like, you know that rock Star

1384
01:32:29,119 --> 01:32:33,159
table Tennis game, and like what
that did for like a year, right,

1385
01:32:33,239 --> 01:32:39,800
Like what the dominance that that game
demonstrated, right, put that into

1386
01:32:39,840 --> 01:32:44,680
pickle ball with just like the same
bullshit, right with like the color coded

1387
01:32:45,079 --> 01:32:47,760
you know, tails on all the
on the ball, right, like dude,

1388
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:53,560
Yes, i mean I've realized that's
very low on the on the pit.

1389
01:32:54,359 --> 01:32:57,760
But still, please, I think
that game. Just give me table

1390
01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:01,000
tennis backward capec if they haven't done
that yet, which I sit over Watch

1391
01:33:01,039 --> 01:33:04,800
two got crushed on Steam. It's
out on Steam now. That released on

1392
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:10,640
Thursday. It was met with over
twenty five thousand reviews from players, and

1393
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:15,479
it got an overwhelmingly negative review score. From those twenty five thousand reviews,

1394
01:33:15,720 --> 01:33:20,640
only reviews are positive. It's just
getting stepped on and not even the fun

1395
01:33:20,720 --> 01:33:26,560
way, not even in the fun
way. No. Yeah, they they

1396
01:33:26,600 --> 01:33:30,840
have made like every conceivable misstep with
this one. It seems like, Yeah,

1397
01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:36,479
it's like like just a sideshow Bob
break situation, just a NonStop failure

1398
01:33:38,079 --> 01:33:42,960
of their own device. And yep, wow, it's it's almost impressive.

1399
01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:45,119
It feels like they're doing it on
purpose at this point. Yeah. Right,

1400
01:33:45,199 --> 01:33:47,119
it's like some sort of the producer's
scheme, right, like that they're

1401
01:33:47,119 --> 01:33:53,520
doing this taking insurance money or something. H players are obviously criticizing the free

1402
01:33:53,560 --> 01:33:57,079
to play structure something it's been a
problem with Overwatch two and going free to

1403
01:33:57,079 --> 01:34:00,399
play for a while now. They
also dislike that the hero missions that were

1404
01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:02,920
much hyped got removed. Of course, that you know, old news,

1405
01:34:03,119 --> 01:34:06,439
but that stuff is still very sore
spot because they've not What happens is that

1406
01:34:06,439 --> 01:34:11,000
stuff got announced, got canceled,
and fans are mad at that time.

1407
01:34:11,399 --> 01:34:13,760
But since they're like, this is
the game you're supposed to continue to be

1408
01:34:13,800 --> 01:34:17,000
playing, and it's like they've done
nothing really to fill in that gap that

1409
01:34:17,039 --> 01:34:21,399
people feel has now been been created
because that stuff got canceled except for with

1410
01:34:23,119 --> 01:34:27,399
some single player you know or you
know PBE stuff that was like the older

1411
01:34:27,439 --> 01:34:30,039
PV stuff. It's like, oh, here's some emissions you can do kind

1412
01:34:30,039 --> 01:34:32,720
of offline against the CPU, and
these are stories. They have stories in

1413
01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:36,479
them, but they're fifteen dollars extra
and it's not the full content that they

1414
01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:41,159
were promising to make originally, the
full cam PV campaign. This is just

1415
01:34:41,239 --> 01:34:44,640
smaller stuff, but they're charging fifteen
dollars extra and fans are like, man,

1416
01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:46,479
we we've already felt burned by this, and now you want us to

1417
01:34:46,520 --> 01:34:50,439
pay for things that we kind of
don't even really want. We're not we're

1418
01:34:50,439 --> 01:34:55,840
definitely not happy with and so yeah, the game's just getting crushed Overwatched two

1419
01:34:55,920 --> 01:35:00,399
is a big important thing for Blizzard. Uh. You got to man that

1420
01:35:00,359 --> 01:35:02,800
they have had long term plans for
this, and it's like, what do

1421
01:35:02,880 --> 01:35:05,720
they do now? They just have
to I think they have to just grin

1422
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:10,760
and bear it and try to fix
it, right, Yeah, that's the

1423
01:35:11,079 --> 01:35:15,399
that's the steepest hill to climb for
that though. Yeah, yeah, it

1424
01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:18,359
was a bummer because we we had
we made an attempt to throw it down

1425
01:35:18,359 --> 01:35:23,960
on a Thursday with TF two,
and even though it took a while to

1426
01:35:23,960 --> 01:35:26,479
get a server up and running and
we kind of didn't really get a surf

1427
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:30,159
up and running, I still had
fun playing TF two with the community same

1428
01:35:30,359 --> 01:35:32,800
and it made me wish, like, oh, I wish there was a

1429
01:35:32,880 --> 01:35:38,439
version of Team two with all these
classes. It's more modernized, it's easier

1430
01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:42,479
to group up with people, and
I thought about overwatching. I got sad.

1431
01:35:43,039 --> 01:35:46,720
Yeah, that was sad, exactly. Apparently, the most recent review

1432
01:35:46,960 --> 01:35:53,119
on Overwatch two is an asky art
version of Mario taking a poop. So

1433
01:35:53,680 --> 01:35:59,680
okay, well, at least there's
some artistry in this the exactly there we

1434
01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:03,199
go, all right? Moving on, Keith David will succeed Lance Reddick as

1435
01:36:03,279 --> 01:36:09,039
Commanders of Allah in Destiny. The
voice actor changed for Commanders of Alla and

1436
01:36:09,119 --> 01:36:12,800
Destiny will have Keith David replacing him. The character is going to stick around.

1437
01:36:13,119 --> 01:36:15,920
Reddick could voice the character since its
inception. He passed away, of

1438
01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:18,600
course recently at sixty years old,
Rest in peace. Bungie announced the plans

1439
01:36:18,600 --> 01:36:21,760
to have the character continue. Obviously, the you know, the voice actors

1440
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:26,079
for all in all the other languages
are still around, so it's like we

1441
01:36:26,199 --> 01:36:29,439
probably should find a way to maintain
this. Keith David is stepping into that

1442
01:36:29,560 --> 01:36:30,920
role. He did a nice message
saying that much he looked up to Lance

1443
01:36:30,960 --> 01:36:35,319
Reddick and nice taken over and I
loved. I loved Lance Reddick. I

1444
01:36:35,359 --> 01:36:38,880
love Keith David. I think this
is this is great stuff. And Keith

1445
01:36:38,960 --> 01:36:44,840
David just to see him wonderful.
One of my favorite, my favorite moments

1446
01:36:45,600 --> 01:36:49,079
maybe in my life, but in
video games is Keith David playing himself in

1447
01:36:49,199 --> 01:36:51,960
Saints Row and then getting in a
fight with Rowdy Roddy Piper, just like

1448
01:36:53,039 --> 01:36:56,439
and they live and man, I
just love just hanging out in this game

1449
01:36:56,439 --> 01:37:00,439
with Keith David and Roddy Roddy Piper. It's it's great stuff. So I

1450
01:37:00,479 --> 01:37:05,079
really liked him and the Princess and
the frog, yeah yeah, and everything.

1451
01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:09,680
He's very in future. Man.
He's just a good actor but also

1452
01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:13,159
a good first actor and he's been
around forever. He I love him,

1453
01:37:13,199 --> 01:37:15,359
And obviously it's a devastating reason for
him to have any role, But if

1454
01:37:15,399 --> 01:37:19,000
anyone's going to have it, I
think he is the best possible choice they

1455
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:25,680
could have made. Agreed, David
a very strong part of the last season

1456
01:37:25,720 --> 01:37:30,039
of Community. I think I didn't
know that either. I think he was

1457
01:37:30,119 --> 01:37:34,520
spawn. His bit about being the
best wedding guest holds true, and I've

1458
01:37:34,560 --> 01:37:39,800
maintained that of you know, I
don't want to I don't want to give

1459
01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:43,119
the gig away, but hey,
it informs how I handle a lot of

1460
01:37:43,159 --> 01:37:47,000
my day to day. Really.
Yes, he was also a mass effect.

1461
01:37:47,159 --> 01:37:53,479
Yes, Goliath and gargoyles. God
keep David fucking rules right, uh

1462
01:37:53,560 --> 01:37:56,840
so, yes again, rip Lance
Reddick and you know, long Lives a

1463
01:37:56,840 --> 01:38:00,720
battle and all that stuff. All
right, let's see here aintendo, patents,

1464
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,560
loading screen and more from Tears to
the Kingdom. Nintendo has issued patents

1465
01:38:03,640 --> 01:38:08,560
or has requested patents for multiple features
in the Legend of Zelda Tears of the

1466
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:13,680
Kingdom. In particular, it wants
for stuff like ultrahand and the fusibility stuff

1467
01:38:13,720 --> 01:38:16,880
that might be tough to enforce or
whatever, because we've seen that such glue.

1468
01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:24,279
Yeah, you can't, you can't
fucking patent. Go well they're gonna

1469
01:38:24,319 --> 01:38:27,000
try. It really comes that too. How will they try to enforce it?

1470
01:38:27,039 --> 01:38:30,640
But it's Nintendo. They love to
enforce stuff so big. The big

1471
01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:32,479
one that they're enforcing or that they're
going for that they might get is the

1472
01:38:33,119 --> 01:38:38,000
loading screen when you fast travel,
where it's like when you initiate a fast

1473
01:38:38,039 --> 01:38:40,600
travel and it goes to load and
it shows you on the map where you're

1474
01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:44,439
coming from and then where you're going, which is something that I find very

1475
01:38:44,479 --> 01:38:45,560
useful. They shouldn't be able to
listen. I don't like any of these

1476
01:38:45,560 --> 01:38:48,960
patents. The stuff sucks, but
I love that feature. I do the

1477
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,600
fast travel and I in that loading
moment, I'm like, wait, why

1478
01:38:51,600 --> 01:38:54,600
am I Where am I going?
Why did I do this? And then

1479
01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:56,640
the map loads, I'm like,
oh yeah, that little thing on the

1480
01:38:56,640 --> 01:39:00,800
map that's where I was going.
So yeah. So like the process of

1481
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:05,680
being awarded a patent, right,
like, who's the governing body in every

1482
01:39:05,680 --> 01:39:10,279
country? But it's the USPTO,
the US Patents and Trademark Office. So

1483
01:39:10,439 --> 01:39:14,560
is there's some sort of like judge
or something or like committee that's like there's

1484
01:39:15,239 --> 01:39:17,640
I think it's like a committee,
yes, uh, and uh they will

1485
01:39:18,039 --> 01:39:21,640
look for the novelty of the patent. They will give like a public response

1486
01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:25,199
period where people will be like,
I we did a similar idea long before

1487
01:39:25,199 --> 01:39:29,560
this. You cannot pattent this because
this idea existed previously. It's weird in

1488
01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:34,560
video games. Uh, you have
to patent very specific implementations because you can't

1489
01:39:34,560 --> 01:39:40,359
patent ideas. Ideas can't be patented. That's more like copyright territory, right,

1490
01:39:40,640 --> 01:39:43,319
So they're what they're trying. They're
you know, these companies are always

1491
01:39:43,319 --> 01:39:48,479
interested in blurring the lines because patents
are very easy to monetize and to weaponize

1492
01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,960
against other companies, and so they're
good tools for lawyers to have. Lawyers

1493
01:39:53,000 --> 01:39:56,439
really like them. Everyone else hates
them. Uh for the most part.

1494
01:39:56,600 --> 01:39:59,720
They you know, they they do
expire after twenty years, which is a

1495
01:39:59,720 --> 01:40:02,720
way better than copyright copyrights like forever
and ever and then plus forever after you

1496
01:40:02,760 --> 01:40:08,920
die years yeah and then yes,
seventy years after death or yeah, I

1497
01:40:08,920 --> 01:40:13,760
think so, so yeah, that's
just forever. But patents after twenty years,

1498
01:40:13,920 --> 01:40:17,279
it's it's all fair game. But
even still that's way too long for

1499
01:40:17,319 --> 01:40:20,640
ideas and video like the Nemesis system
is one the one that everyone always points

1500
01:40:20,680 --> 01:40:25,119
to that has a patent, which
is why you haven't seen another video games.

1501
01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:29,079
And that's stupid. We should say, did they know that they if

1502
01:40:29,079 --> 01:40:32,039
they file the patent, they can
implement that system too. Like no,

1503
01:40:32,159 --> 01:40:34,960
the ideas that they license it out, you know, I mean no,

1504
01:40:35,039 --> 01:40:41,760
but they themselves you know what have
sure sure, surely they don't know that.

1505
01:40:41,880 --> 01:40:45,159
So yes, I'm sorry, but
these these just make me mad?

1506
01:40:45,159 --> 01:40:48,800
Do you make me mad? They're
like predatory and like fucking stupid squatty bullshit,

1507
01:40:50,119 --> 01:40:54,359
stopping, stopping stupid, right,
it's squatting, squatty, and it's

1508
01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:58,000
just we we we want, we
want these in case we see a game

1509
01:40:58,000 --> 01:41:00,319
that we get mad about and then
we can threaten them with these patents.

1510
01:41:00,319 --> 01:41:03,680
That's all. It is infuriating,
It prevents the growth of art, and

1511
01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:10,279
it is greedy and shitty. And
don't do it, Nintendo, mister Nintendo,

1512
01:41:10,319 --> 01:41:15,319
are you listening to our podcast?
Don't do it please, It's not

1513
01:41:15,359 --> 01:41:18,399
gonna stick. They some of them
might, some of them will probably won't.

1514
01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:21,680
But they and they we will probably
never hear about them again. That's

1515
01:41:21,680 --> 01:41:25,600
probably what will happen. Other companies
will probably find other ways to do something

1516
01:41:25,680 --> 01:41:28,960
very similar someone mentioned in chat like
yeah, the In the twitch chat,

1517
01:41:29,000 --> 01:41:31,880
the printy dude says, the machine
games loading screen for like an Indiana Jones

1518
01:41:31,960 --> 01:41:35,159
thing where he's like flying from one
place to another, Like, you could

1519
01:41:35,199 --> 01:41:40,079
probably do exactly that, because that
idea is from the movie and predates what

1520
01:41:40,119 --> 01:41:43,079
they did with Tears in the Kingdom, and it's a different implementation of a

1521
01:41:43,119 --> 01:41:46,000
similar idea. So that probably wouldn't
be covered under the patent. But Nintendo

1522
01:41:46,079 --> 01:41:49,680
has the patent. They could still
threaten to sue and that might be enough

1523
01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:53,039
to undo a lot of that stuff. That's the concern. It's like,

1524
01:41:53,079 --> 01:41:57,079
what are Nintendo's lawyer is going to
use these things for? That does it

1525
01:41:57,159 --> 01:41:59,720
for the news? I'm all done
over here. Thanks for hearing me,

1526
01:41:59,760 --> 01:42:01,840
Every buddy back to you. Can
you end it on one that wasn't infuriating?

1527
01:42:02,119 --> 01:42:09,119
Good? It's my speciality. Well, speaking about specialities. Around this

1528
01:42:09,159 --> 01:42:14,399
time, our speciality is taking a
break and we'll be back with emails and

1529
01:42:14,800 --> 01:42:18,000
shout outs and shoots. Fill out
the dock now, I guess, no,

1530
01:42:18,319 --> 01:42:21,640
fill out the dock. When the
email music hits a bit stop,

1531
01:42:21,680 --> 01:42:26,199
I thought you stopped it soon.
No start it. We don't start it

1532
01:42:26,319 --> 01:42:31,199
until the email music starts. All
right, see after this stretch, check

1533
01:42:31,319 --> 01:42:34,159
when is the last time you stretched? Just go do it now, everybody,

1534
01:42:34,279 --> 01:42:36,399
just just lean a little bit to
the left. Ah, yes,

1535
01:42:36,640 --> 01:42:40,960
good, a little bit of the
right. Ah, yes, it's good.

1536
01:42:40,960 --> 01:42:44,399
It's good. Flex the arms,
wiggle it. Take your arm.

1537
01:42:44,439 --> 01:42:47,640
Pretend like you're stirring a big,
big pot of soup with each arm.

1538
01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:51,960
It'll be a fun little stretch because
now it is the final stretch of the

1539
01:42:53,000 --> 01:42:59,279
show. Emails for the show.
This is when we read emails from you

1540
01:43:00,039 --> 01:43:04,479
at GiantBomb dot com. That's right. Oh yeah, yeah, you know,

1541
01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:10,000
free freestylet that off the dome because
that was so impressive. God gifted

1542
01:43:10,039 --> 01:43:14,439
it to him as thank you for
this God's favorite podcast. That's right,

1543
01:43:15,680 --> 01:43:20,560
Bless hands and everything. Uh and
all that jazz BombCast at giant bomb dot

1544
01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:25,399
com is the email addressed to send
your emails too. You can send emails

1545
01:43:25,399 --> 01:43:30,359
about virtually any and everything all at
once. Wow. Sure within reasons.

1546
01:43:30,399 --> 01:43:34,439
Hey, you know it clogs up
several people's email boxes. Uh, and

1547
01:43:34,479 --> 01:43:40,279
I hate that I get notifications for
it. I hate to filter. Uh.

1548
01:43:40,319 --> 01:43:47,279
First email comes from I believe Alex
and they write about PSA grading hither.

1549
01:43:48,159 --> 01:43:53,039
I've been an avid trading card collector
for going on thirty years now,

1550
01:43:53,199 --> 01:43:57,159
everything from Pokemon to Digimon, basketball, football, et cetera. Over the

1551
01:43:57,239 --> 01:44:01,239
past few years, I've been able
to offload large wafts of my childhood collections,

1552
01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:05,680
mostly Pokemon, for thousands of dollars, due primarily to the PSA grades

1553
01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:10,920
I was able to earn on each
I say that to illustrate how I can

1554
01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:15,359
absolutely understand why someone might think they
need to grade every potentially valuable card they

1555
01:44:15,399 --> 01:44:20,239
pull. In the year of Our
Load twenty twenty three see God's Favorite podcast.

1556
01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:27,039
I can advise against this enough.
Modern cards graded by PSA simply will

1557
01:44:27,079 --> 01:44:30,319
not hold nearly the value down the
line that their counterparts from the nineties and

1558
01:44:30,359 --> 01:44:34,079
two thousands do. Let's take two
cards, for example, the base Set

1559
01:44:34,399 --> 01:44:40,399
two Charizard Hollow number four, released
in two thousand, and the Brilliant Stars

1560
01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:45,920
char Rezard V Star number eighteen,
released just a year ago in twenty twenty

1561
01:44:45,960 --> 01:44:50,159
two. The base Set two Charizard
has a total graded population of ten thousand,

1562
01:44:50,279 --> 01:44:56,439
with the number of total PSA tens
at sixty two point six percent,

1563
01:44:56,840 --> 01:45:01,319
while the number of sevens or below
come at six thousand, sixty six percent

1564
01:45:01,479 --> 01:45:08,399
of total population. The Brilliant Stars
chars ard v Star already has a total

1565
01:45:08,439 --> 01:45:13,079
pop of four thousand, with the
number of total PSA tens at a staggering

1566
01:45:13,319 --> 01:45:16,880
two thousand. Well the number sevens
or below come at a come at one

1567
01:45:16,960 --> 01:45:19,920
hundred and seven. See, this
is what happens when folks say no more

1568
01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:24,600
wrestling talk, we get into even
dumber talk. All right, yeah,

1569
01:45:27,239 --> 01:45:29,840
on this site a second, So
people are like, what are we talking.

1570
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:34,720
We're just talking about the amount of
cards graded at this number out there

1571
01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:43,159
in the wild. The cars PSA
being the most commonly used grading authority is

1572
01:45:43,199 --> 01:45:46,000
the one controlling the population of these
things, and in doing the reporting,

1573
01:45:46,039 --> 01:45:48,800
that is what this emailer is talking. Yeah, I don't think it's it's

1574
01:45:48,840 --> 01:45:53,600
at all surprising to say old thing
is old, right, that's basically no.

1575
01:45:53,680 --> 01:45:57,680
But when this is more valuable?
Because not right, but old things,

1576
01:45:57,720 --> 01:46:00,399
when in collecting, will always be
more valuable because they're inherently more rare.

1577
01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:06,239
Right. I think Pokemon exists a
bit in a vacuum though, because

1578
01:46:09,399 --> 01:46:13,640
well I didn't say that, but
I and you know, maybe it's more

1579
01:46:13,640 --> 01:46:16,680
of a discussion. But I do
think the older Pokemon stuff, right obviously,

1580
01:46:16,760 --> 01:46:20,000
because when we were growing up,
everyone ripped packs and they just like

1581
01:46:20,119 --> 01:46:24,600
tossed their cards until like a drawer
or whatever, and then like twenty years

1582
01:46:24,680 --> 01:46:26,760
later, you're like, oh my
god, this is probably worth something.

1583
01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:29,319
You get it graded, it comes
back a six, and it's like worth

1584
01:46:29,399 --> 01:46:34,840
nothing, whereas if you have a
like the emailer is writing, if you

1585
01:46:34,880 --> 01:46:39,920
have something that's like very old but
grades nine or higher, you're you're in

1586
01:46:39,960 --> 01:46:44,600
the money. So that is the
rare. That is like the inverse rarity

1587
01:46:45,199 --> 01:46:49,079
diagram for that stuff. But now
where everyone is ripping packs hoping to get

1588
01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:54,880
a card that they can grade,
guess what, you and everyone's mother is

1589
01:46:54,920 --> 01:46:58,720
doing that. So that's that's the
whole story, I guess. But I

1590
01:46:58,760 --> 01:47:01,439
think I think it's different though,
because the scarcity is not as much of

1591
01:47:01,479 --> 01:47:06,000
a thing right as it is with
like cards and stuff like that. You

1592
01:47:06,039 --> 01:47:11,039
know, it's more quality focused.
I think as soon as you rip like

1593
01:47:11,079 --> 01:47:14,239
a new pack, you're grading that
instantly if you think it's a rare,

1594
01:47:14,319 --> 01:47:18,159
just like the email are saying.
Then they continue on with the cards from

1595
01:47:18,159 --> 01:47:23,239
our youth that grade well are incredibly
valuable, valuable because none of us were

1596
01:47:23,279 --> 01:47:27,000
grading these cards back then, most
of you got tossed in boxes or closets

1597
01:47:27,039 --> 01:47:30,720
unprotected, only see the light of
day when we all went into lockdown some

1598
01:47:30,800 --> 01:47:34,560
twenty to thirty years after we ripped
them. In my opinion, it's not

1599
01:47:34,600 --> 01:47:38,840
worth the money or time right now
to grade these cards, these cards being

1600
01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:42,600
newer cards, unless you plan on
selling them short term. I love you

1601
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:46,279
all and please more collectible talk from
the Deagan twins Jeff and Jail. I

1602
01:47:46,279 --> 01:47:48,520
think that's that's a fair opinion to
have. It would be like, it's

1603
01:47:48,520 --> 01:47:51,399
not worth the time. In my
opinion, none of this is worth your

1604
01:47:51,399 --> 01:47:54,920
time, So there you go.
Yeah, I mean, like you know,

1605
01:47:55,239 --> 01:47:58,600
look, I got bit by that
bug again over during the pandemic a

1606
01:47:58,640 --> 01:48:01,760
little bit, and like you know, I mean, the new Marvel Masterpiece

1607
01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:05,680
boxes are now going for nine hundred
dollars a box that came out like two

1608
01:48:05,680 --> 01:48:11,399
weeks ago. Those were some thick
boys. They're thick puppies. It's crazy.

1609
01:48:11,479 --> 01:48:15,119
It's just crazy. Which leads me
to the conclusion, my friends,

1610
01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:20,359
is that we need to make our
own trading cards. Okay, they do

1611
01:48:20,399 --> 01:48:24,520
this for K pop people, is
that correct, Bailey, Yeah, they

1612
01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:27,439
definitely do Yeah, of course they're
just called people. Jan you don't have

1613
01:48:27,520 --> 01:48:31,840
to say K pop people, okay, like k people. I mean they

1614
01:48:31,840 --> 01:48:35,960
do them for baseball players, baseball
people too. Also, yeah, people,

1615
01:48:36,319 --> 01:48:40,840
puck people, all kinds of people. People aren't people though, that's

1616
01:48:41,680 --> 01:48:45,760
no, they're just not athletes.
No, I'm getting what I would say

1617
01:48:45,800 --> 01:48:47,920
though, right, is that we
need to make our own and have I

1618
01:48:47,960 --> 01:48:53,359
looked into this a little bit,
a little bit, and only we can

1619
01:48:53,479 --> 01:48:56,760
have like a hollow effect on them
though, Oh, without a doubt,

1620
01:48:56,840 --> 01:49:00,560
Jam, we're all getting our one
of one specials, buddy. We could

1621
01:49:00,560 --> 01:49:03,560
just it could be like what like
maybe a fifty cards, one hundred cards,

1622
01:49:03,560 --> 01:49:06,159
and like there's just variations of us, like the Muppet versions of us.

1623
01:49:06,319 --> 01:49:10,159
Well, I think there should be
like you know, there's a there'll

1624
01:49:10,199 --> 01:49:13,960
be a base right where it's like
the like one through fifty, let's call

1625
01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:16,439
it one through fifty, let's not
going ahead, and then parallels of each

1626
01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:21,039
of those one through fifties, right, and then like fifty one to sixty

1627
01:49:21,079 --> 01:49:25,520
will be like dumbest things, Dan
said, each one of those gets like

1628
01:49:26,159 --> 01:49:29,039
ten you know, ten little collectible
of that, and we'll just do that.

1629
01:49:29,399 --> 01:49:32,800
So if anyone out there knows anyone
who can help us make these cards.

1630
01:49:32,960 --> 01:49:36,720
I would love to do this,
not because we want to create some

1631
01:49:36,760 --> 01:49:41,399
sort of artificial market and like drack
off the price or anything, just because

1632
01:49:41,439 --> 01:49:46,920
we're not fun fun, Like who
wants a one exactly? Serapis a one

1633
01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:51,760
of one Mitch Tolkoto foot card.
Could you imagine you've got the foot card?

1634
01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:57,840
God, he's gonna be like exodia, you fully assemble Mitch Tolkoto and

1635
01:49:57,880 --> 01:50:00,399
everything. Yeah, oh yeah,
let's do it. Oh boy, I

1636
01:50:00,399 --> 01:50:04,680
would like to ghost Malone owns the
one foot card. Yeah, so if

1637
01:50:04,720 --> 01:50:09,479
anyone, yeah, he's got it, So reach out. If you're in

1638
01:50:09,520 --> 01:50:14,399
this business, just give me a
quack Auga card please, Yeah, all

1639
01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:18,239
right, next email something just as
valuable as trading cards. Nathan from tom

1640
01:50:18,319 --> 01:50:23,479
Water, Washington writes, then,
which fast food place has the best condiments?

1641
01:50:25,840 --> 01:50:29,880
Arby's. Arby's has got like the
most interesting ones, right, Horsey

1642
01:50:29,920 --> 01:50:35,479
sauce and arby sauce. A Horsey
sauce, it's a horse Radish sauce sauce.

1643
01:50:36,199 --> 01:50:42,640
It's good. It goes on their
beefs on their beans. The closest

1644
01:50:42,800 --> 01:50:46,560
Arby's to me is forty five miles
away man, you live in on just

1645
01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:50,560
a wasteland, a hell of a
commute. You're kind of proud of that,

1646
01:50:51,199 --> 01:50:54,680
just that you do. How dare
you? I will. I'll go

1647
01:50:54,720 --> 01:50:59,199
get my Arby's beef jumpsuit right now. I have it somewhere in this house.

1648
01:50:59,239 --> 01:51:01,000
I don't know where, but I'll
find it Wingsto minutes away, not

1649
01:51:01,079 --> 01:51:05,000
miles minutes away, wing Stop Ranch
for me. Yeah, it was good.

1650
01:51:05,119 --> 01:51:09,399
Like it's like Sonic has a bunch
of like the little cups that you

1651
01:51:09,479 --> 01:51:11,880
use for like the chicken and the
on your rings and stuff, and I

1652
01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:15,640
think they have pretty good. But
Taco Bella probably is my favorite because I

1653
01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:20,680
like fire sauce a lot. So
yes, okay, hey, what do

1654
01:51:21,000 --> 01:51:24,720
you any sauce? And I say
yes, fire please. You can get

1655
01:51:24,760 --> 01:51:28,800
that beef female burrito. Now it's
got the flame and hot fritos in it.

1656
01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:32,960
You can replace the rice with potatoes. Get it grilled. What that

1657
01:51:33,079 --> 01:51:38,920
sounds. Yeah, I'm just making
myself. Canes sauce is actually very good

1658
01:51:38,960 --> 01:51:41,560
as well. From from Raising Canes. Oh, I love cane sauce.

1659
01:51:41,640 --> 01:51:44,920
Yeah, it seems like it's probably
just like ketchup and mayonnaise mixed together with

1660
01:51:44,920 --> 01:51:48,399
a few other things. That's that's
just thousand, that thousand island, one

1661
01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:53,319
thousand islands. Yeah, it's red. Robin has camp fire sauce. It's

1662
01:51:53,359 --> 01:51:57,439
just barbecue and mayonnaise, but it
rocks. Yeah. I make my own

1663
01:51:57,479 --> 01:52:00,760
hot sauce all the time, and
mine's better. Yo, yo, jesus,

1664
01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:03,239
you're all ready for another, y'all, y're all ready for another,

1665
01:52:03,359 --> 01:52:08,239
like a jam food thing, because
yes, please please, what we do?

1666
01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:12,119
What we what we do? You
take a little little mason jar,

1667
01:52:12,239 --> 01:52:15,239
right, little little little boy,
and then you a little mason jar.

1668
01:52:15,239 --> 01:52:16,520
I don't have a little mason jar
o the way you're pinching, What do

1669
01:52:16,520 --> 01:52:19,319
you mean? Yeah, a little
little tency mason jar for like a baby

1670
01:52:19,319 --> 01:52:23,960
food. Yeah, okay, got
it, Roger, I have no measurements

1671
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:27,479
here. Let's let's just do it
in bar terms. You get one part

1672
01:52:27,800 --> 01:52:31,119
vinegar, right, I already know
this is up grubs alley, one part

1673
01:52:31,359 --> 01:52:35,760
Vietnamese fish sauce. Okay, don't
get the Filipino stuff. You gotta get

1674
01:52:35,800 --> 01:52:39,880
three crabs, all right, three
crab fish sauce. That's a ship right

1675
01:52:39,920 --> 01:52:42,479
there. And then you add in
a little bit of soy sauce, a

1676
01:52:42,520 --> 01:52:45,520
little bit of sesame oil. You
gotta make sure you're getting sesame oil from

1677
01:52:45,560 --> 01:52:49,399
a tin, all right, from
like a metal tin, and it's nothing

1678
01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:53,479
but Korean on there. And then
you have to kindly ask an old woman

1679
01:52:53,760 --> 01:52:57,119
is this sesame oil? And then
she'll politely nod her head. And then

1680
01:52:57,239 --> 01:53:00,640
you throw in an obscene amount of
chili flakes, and I mean an obscene

1681
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:03,000
amount of chili flicks, all right, and then you crush, you crush

1682
01:53:03,079 --> 01:53:05,640
two clothes of garlic. You don't
mince it. You crush it, all

1683
01:53:05,680 --> 01:53:10,079
right, sounds so good, and
then you throw it in there you let

1684
01:53:10,079 --> 01:53:12,479
it sit. And then if you
want to feel a little bit a little

1685
01:53:12,479 --> 01:53:15,199
bit, a little a little bit
tinglier, adding a green onion. But

1686
01:53:15,239 --> 01:53:18,479
then you don't you don't mince the
green onions or cut them into little medallions.

1687
01:53:18,640 --> 01:53:21,840
You just cut them into like one
inch chunks. Like are you storing

1688
01:53:21,880 --> 01:53:25,920
this? Like where does it?
Ghost? Body? In a little jar?

1689
01:53:26,560 --> 01:53:29,039
And then does that need to be
refrigerated? Like what are we talking

1690
01:53:29,039 --> 01:53:30,640
about? What the refrigerator? Okay? What do you? And you put

1691
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:33,680
it on just everything everything. It
makes a great vinegrette for a salad.

1692
01:53:33,720 --> 01:53:38,319
You dip some meats in it.
Can you just make it for me to

1693
01:53:38,439 --> 01:53:41,680
me? Yeah? Or do that? Yeah, OK, I'll sell a

1694
01:53:41,680 --> 01:53:45,079
little I'll send little jars across the
country. Show you said sell first and

1695
01:53:45,079 --> 01:53:48,600
then decided you weren't going to sell
your friend's sauce. You can make make

1696
01:53:48,640 --> 01:53:51,560
the wedding favors if you ever get
like you know or one of those going

1697
01:53:51,600 --> 01:53:55,119
on, like just get that to
all your guests or whatever. That's a

1698
01:53:55,119 --> 01:53:58,479
good idea. Oh hold on,
I need to people need to know that.

1699
01:53:58,800 --> 01:54:00,199
No, we don't need to show
the fish. I'm a fish sauce

1700
01:54:00,199 --> 01:54:02,760
connoisseur. Throw that ship in your
scrambled eggs. By the way, I

1701
01:54:02,760 --> 01:54:05,880
know exactly the one you're talking about. It is the best. Thank you,

1702
01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:10,880
Bales. Think I love sesame.
So my sesame. You said sesame

1703
01:54:10,960 --> 01:54:14,000
oil that I have in the glass
bottle with like only half of the writing

1704
01:54:14,039 --> 01:54:16,279
and Korean, I'm fucking up.
Yeah, it sounds like he shook his

1705
01:54:16,319 --> 01:54:20,119
head audio seriously shook his head,
took off his head, and he wasn't

1706
01:54:20,159 --> 01:54:23,640
gonna get up and show something.
But then you said that, and he

1707
01:54:23,640 --> 01:54:27,840
feels and I feel like I've been
making a major mistake and he's gonna correct

1708
01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:31,439
some He's gonna recorrect the trajectory of
my life. Now pull shit, He's

1709
01:54:31,479 --> 01:54:35,079
going to change your world right now, that's what I need. You know.

1710
01:54:35,199 --> 01:54:41,199
I wanted to put his sauce on
the store. Sure I couldn't find

1711
01:54:41,199 --> 01:54:46,359
it. Uh yeah, it looks
like this for sorry, audio just looks

1712
01:54:46,399 --> 01:54:53,000
like this. You know, it
needs to look like there's like this there

1713
01:54:53,039 --> 01:54:58,840
you go. Oh God, just
like delicious. Also eat KIMSI every day.

1714
01:54:58,880 --> 01:55:05,239
It's good probiotics. Anyway, I
don't even know our next email comes

1715
01:55:05,279 --> 01:55:11,640
from our This is I believe about
little gimmicks. I didn't completely read this

1716
01:55:12,439 --> 01:55:15,079
BombCast eight oh one, Grub mentioned
playing Tears of the Kingdom while prepping his

1717
01:55:15,159 --> 01:55:19,159
daughters for bed. This made me
examine my own life. The results are

1718
01:55:19,239 --> 01:55:26,439
unsettling. My kids are six and
three, similar to the ages to the

1719
01:55:26,520 --> 01:55:30,000
mini Grubs. There's no fucking way
I could play a switch at bedtime.

1720
01:55:30,079 --> 01:55:33,079
My son and daughter are too feral. Instead, I listen to podcasts while

1721
01:55:33,119 --> 01:55:38,279
bathing my children and putting their on
their pajamas. Stop the podcast while I'm

1722
01:55:38,319 --> 01:55:43,520
reading stories. Then in case my
daughter, the three year old, resume

1723
01:55:43,560 --> 01:55:45,600
the podcast while I lie on her
bed and settle her down for sleep.

1724
01:55:46,119 --> 01:55:50,800
Often I listen to gay miss warnings. This means that I have spent a

1725
01:55:50,800 --> 01:55:57,199
lot of time lying in the dark, watching my darling little girl's eyes getting

1726
01:55:57,199 --> 01:56:02,359
heavier while in my ears Grub discusses
micro soft purchase of Activision Blizzard. I've

1727
01:56:02,359 --> 01:56:08,239
sensed her breath and getting slower while
Grub explained some Jim Ryan bullshit. I

1728
01:56:08,359 --> 01:56:12,000
felt her hand on my face,
that she smiles a sleepy smile, and

1729
01:56:12,039 --> 01:56:17,479
in the same moment heard Grub say
the words Bobby Cottock. My question is

1730
01:56:17,479 --> 01:56:21,039
this, is there anything in your
lives that is vaguely pleasant, harmless and

1731
01:56:21,399 --> 01:56:26,000
banal? Well also being the most
fucked up, unhinged, real, deep

1732
01:56:26,039 --> 01:56:30,479
sicko shit imaginable. Love you guys, Ireland for the Rugby World Cup.

1733
01:56:30,680 --> 01:56:34,199
Let's go are I feel like before
we even get going on this, I

1734
01:56:34,239 --> 01:56:39,039
want to know that the way you
hesitated before saying banal made me confident.

1735
01:56:40,479 --> 01:56:44,439
Yeah, he's gonna say b anal. Yeah, I don't do banal.

1736
01:56:45,960 --> 01:56:47,920
I was trying to figure out a
way how to how to how to pronounce

1737
01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:55,199
it fun like a couple of such
a beautiful email. Yeahously written, so

1738
01:56:55,239 --> 01:57:00,199
horrifying, but what's the real deep
o, deep deep sicko shit, Like,

1739
01:57:00,199 --> 01:57:02,640
I don't think that's having a touching
moment with your children while I talk

1740
01:57:02,680 --> 01:57:06,079
about Bobby Cottic. It's a little
bit unhinged for sure. Yeah yeah,

1741
01:57:06,119 --> 01:57:10,640
but I don't know if it's like
sicko like I mean, yeah, I

1742
01:57:10,680 --> 01:57:13,880
was gonna say. My mind's very
similar, pretty much exact same, except

1743
01:57:13,920 --> 01:57:16,680
replaced listening to me with Right now, I'm listening to that American Prometheus,

1744
01:57:16,720 --> 01:57:23,720
So I'm the book on tape for
this American Prometheus. Uh, just just

1745
01:57:23,920 --> 01:57:28,199
like Oppenheimer's stuff. So it's like
all kinds of like really deep troubling things

1746
01:57:28,840 --> 01:57:31,239
while my children are falling asleep.
So hey, you know what, it's

1747
01:57:31,239 --> 01:57:34,920
fine, it's not that unhinged.
How what do you mean You're listening to

1748
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:40,159
that while they are getting Like,
well, how does that work? I

1749
01:57:40,319 --> 01:57:45,079
have one bud in and they are
either taking a bath or I'm like getting

1750
01:57:45,119 --> 01:57:47,600
all this stuff together to like take
their vitamins before bed or brush their teeth

1751
01:57:48,039 --> 01:57:53,199
and basically if I'm doing stuff around
the house, I got it. I

1752
01:57:53,279 --> 01:57:57,920
think it's like the I just need
that delamin of like something keeping my brain

1753
01:57:57,960 --> 01:58:00,760
engaged so that I can get it
done and it'll probably and more efficient manners.

1754
01:58:00,800 --> 01:58:02,680
So I'm listening to something like that
while doing stuff that is like a

1755
01:58:02,760 --> 01:58:06,079
daily routine, anything that's daily routine, I'm trying to also have something else

1756
01:58:06,079 --> 01:58:09,680
going on, Yeah, because I
feel like I couldn't get away with that

1757
01:58:09,760 --> 01:58:12,720
now with with my kid, because
you just feel like, what are you

1758
01:58:12,760 --> 01:58:15,680
listening to? Like, what are
you on? I think that's where of

1759
01:58:15,680 --> 01:58:19,920
course the speaker had helps out of
course, but I'm a speaker hat.

1760
01:58:20,399 --> 01:58:26,119
Yeah, that's what exactly Hannah and
handling that situation. But also, like

1761
01:58:26,199 --> 01:58:29,479
you know, I have it so
it's set, so it's it's plain,

1762
01:58:29,560 --> 01:58:31,760
but it's also in one year,
but it's also got the pass through so

1763
01:58:31,800 --> 01:58:33,840
it has a little like as kind
of like a hearing AIG, so I

1764
01:58:33,840 --> 01:58:38,640
can hear the book on tape or
the podcast, and I can hear everything

1765
01:58:38,640 --> 01:58:42,600
that's going on around me. So
it's that's pretty seamless. Although everyone in

1766
01:58:42,600 --> 01:58:45,199
my family has this terrible habit of
like the one to talk to me and

1767
01:58:45,199 --> 01:58:47,560
then I'm like, okay, and
as soon as I start talking to me,

1768
01:58:47,680 --> 01:58:54,000
they're gonna walk away and keep talking. Guys, you've got to talk

1769
01:58:54,159 --> 01:58:59,720
to me. Like that. No, I don't know, but to walk

1770
01:58:59,720 --> 01:59:03,079
into traffic. Yeah, like I
will chase. I will chase Stacy down

1771
01:59:03,079 --> 01:59:06,199
and be like, why are you
leaving? You? You wanted to talk

1772
01:59:06,239 --> 01:59:11,359
to me? Just talk to me. That's my most said thing in the

1773
01:59:11,399 --> 01:59:15,079
house right now, talk to me. Yeah, Emmy has had full on

1774
01:59:15,199 --> 01:59:21,279
conversations with air or a stranger while
I'm like tying my shoes across the street

1775
01:59:21,319 --> 01:59:26,279
and I'm like, yeah, your
dog, what the hell? Just your

1776
01:59:26,520 --> 01:59:31,319
special awareness? Now, I gotta
admit, I mean I've done that.

1777
01:59:31,399 --> 01:59:35,880
I'm guilty of this every now and
then too, I've I've become more conscious

1778
01:59:35,920 --> 01:59:41,479
of it, so I've stut it
out. I'm incredibly socially and spatially where

1779
01:59:41,560 --> 01:59:45,720
at all times I'm constantly worried what
everyone is thinking and have it making sure

1780
01:59:45,720 --> 01:59:49,079
they're a good time total libra am
I right? Yeah, that's what about

1781
01:59:49,079 --> 01:59:53,560
you back? What about you?
Bailey? What about me? Oh?

1782
01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:58,119
I don't have children or anything like
that. Special awareness with your social My

1783
01:59:58,159 --> 02:00:01,520
spacial awareness is really bad. I
do multitask a lot like this, Like

1784
02:00:01,600 --> 02:00:04,399
I think this caller is not caller, This caller is very impressive. This

1785
02:00:04,399 --> 02:00:09,319
email guy is really impressive. Yeah, because you know, doing multiple stuff

1786
02:00:09,359 --> 02:00:13,399
at once. Last night, my
biggest multitask was during a Balderskate fight.

1787
02:00:13,399 --> 02:00:15,399
I was playing Slay the Spire on
my phone. Oh my god, you're

1788
02:00:18,319 --> 02:00:21,399
you're a smart my life, I
don't have kids. I'm doing this.

1789
02:00:23,800 --> 02:00:27,399
You're here, You're a smarter person
than I am. Okay, I would

1790
02:00:27,399 --> 02:00:30,199
see. I can't. My brain
can't fathom it. I can barely host

1791
02:00:30,279 --> 02:00:35,600
the podcast and read emails. Uh
last email. The show is about everyone's

1792
02:00:35,600 --> 02:00:43,039
favorite topic, food ash from Luton, Lutton, England. Right soon,

1793
02:00:43,640 --> 02:00:47,039
Hey bombers. After Okay, maybe
it's okay. Maybe it'll be easier if

1794
02:00:47,039 --> 02:00:55,359
I say Luton. There we go
there, it's Tuesday, and then I'm

1795
02:00:55,439 --> 02:01:01,119
Lucy James Games Scrimproke. Okay.
After thing to episode seventy nine of The

1796
02:01:01,199 --> 02:01:06,760
Dumb Truck, Jeb announced that a
pizza without cheese is not a pizza.

1797
02:01:06,960 --> 02:01:11,760
I am allergic to cheese, so
I've not had a pizza with cheese on.

1798
02:01:12,199 --> 02:01:15,279
But I was told by someone who
lives in Italy at the first pizza's

1799
02:01:15,680 --> 02:01:20,720
never had cheese on with it to
begin with. It's called the Marinera.

1800
02:01:21,079 --> 02:01:25,920
So I want to have written it's
called a the marinara. It's call he

1801
02:01:26,000 --> 02:01:31,479
pronounced it like the Italian person said, it's called the marana. Thank you

1802
02:01:31,520 --> 02:01:35,359
for correcting me. Thank you for
correcting. It's called it's called the marinara.

1803
02:01:35,760 --> 02:01:40,079
So I want to ask Jeb if
he would class this as a pizza

1804
02:01:40,319 --> 02:01:45,119
if the Italians do. Ask from
England, what are the Italians now about

1805
02:01:45,119 --> 02:01:50,640
pizza? Right? Yeah? And
also clearly you've interviewed them all I talked

1806
02:01:50,680 --> 02:01:59,399
to got to say about this opinion
you. The email reads I was told

1807
02:01:59,439 --> 02:02:02,880
by some one who lives in Italy
there that person could that person could just

1808
02:02:02,880 --> 02:02:10,279
be someone larpin as an Italian.
Maybe they're and they're from Ohio. Maybe

1809
02:02:10,319 --> 02:02:15,000
it's just like some freak from like
Iowa or something. And then therefore they

1810
02:02:15,039 --> 02:02:18,800
say that all pizzas. Come on, listen, I hate it. I'm

1811
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:26,720
sorry that you're lactose and tar I
am okay or allergic to cheese pizza anyway,

1812
02:02:26,840 --> 02:02:29,640
be strong. Well, I'm not. I'm not encouraging you to do

1813
02:02:29,720 --> 02:02:31,239
that, but I'm also here to
I'm also here to tell you that my

1814
02:02:31,319 --> 02:02:35,840
friend Ash, you've never had pizza
and you can't because you're allergic and I'm

1815
02:02:35,880 --> 02:02:40,279
sorry. Maybe you should get some
non vegan cheese on a pizza or something

1816
02:02:40,279 --> 02:02:43,199
like that. Maybe that'll help you
be you know, non allergic. But

1817
02:02:43,319 --> 02:02:45,359
like, come on, no one
could tell me that, like pizza without

1818
02:02:45,399 --> 02:02:50,039
cheese is somehow still pizza. Like
okay, fine, it doesn't matter,

1819
02:02:50,159 --> 02:02:57,920
it does, Yeah, it doesn't
matter. But you know, just muscle

1820
02:02:58,079 --> 02:03:01,800
through your health issues, yeah,
and eat things that you're allergic to,

1821
02:03:02,319 --> 02:03:11,640
because that's right. The the energy
Also, we're also cross pollinating podcasts,

1822
02:03:11,680 --> 02:03:15,560
and I feel a little icky about
that. Number one, number two,

1823
02:03:16,479 --> 02:03:21,680
number two. The energy behind what
was said on the dump was that once,

1824
02:03:23,520 --> 02:03:27,399
uh yes, once pizza does not
have cheese. It is just like

1825
02:03:27,600 --> 02:03:30,840
bread sauce, right, Like that's
just essentially what it is. And I

1826
02:03:30,960 --> 02:03:33,119
do I do remember listening to this
conversation. I was in the parking lot

1827
02:03:33,199 --> 02:03:39,640
to Medieval Times and I was listening
to you guys have this conversation. And

1828
02:03:39,800 --> 02:03:42,479
in my head because I was like, I'm dealing with the kids, I'm

1829
02:03:42,479 --> 02:03:45,359
talking to stuff about we're going in
medieval times and I'm listening to you guys.

1830
02:03:45,359 --> 02:03:46,840
All it was I was trying to
multitask and I was failing, So

1831
02:03:46,960 --> 02:03:49,680
in my head what what you were
saying. I know this is not what

1832
02:03:49,680 --> 02:03:51,640
you're saying, but I was gonna
like make a bit about it when I

1833
02:03:51,680 --> 02:03:54,399
came back, and then I forgot. But now you brought it up here.

1834
02:03:54,399 --> 02:03:56,920
It's like something about it made it
sound like you were saying there were

1835
02:03:56,920 --> 02:04:03,960
too many Italians, and I just
I had that thought while I was walking

1836
02:04:04,000 --> 02:04:06,800
to it in two medial times,
and I just cracked up and made myself

1837
02:04:06,880 --> 02:04:12,760
laugh, And I'm glad you're ada. Who better, who is better position

1838
02:04:12,840 --> 02:04:18,479
to make that declaration than I?
Okay, literally, I literally come on

1839
02:04:19,239 --> 02:04:25,119
is everywhere I look. Okay,
so I think I'm I'm I'm okay to

1840
02:04:25,119 --> 02:04:29,600
say that I saw you last week? Do you agree? Okay? Okay,

1841
02:04:29,640 --> 02:04:31,760
alright, alright, okay, cool. You know, young Elmo gave

1842
02:04:31,800 --> 02:04:35,159
me the Italian pass, so I'll
also I'll also make this statement. You

1843
02:04:35,159 --> 02:04:38,600
know, I'll back to it.
Yeah, Yeah, you're good. Shouts

1844
02:04:38,600 --> 02:04:42,840
out to Jesse. All Right,
that about does it. Four emails.

1845
02:04:44,159 --> 02:04:45,920
We're not gonna get the shout outs
yet because I'm just gonna We're gonna do

1846
02:04:45,960 --> 02:04:51,359
all the programming, reminders, the
shout outs, the plugs now and it's

1847
02:04:51,359 --> 02:04:56,880
saying goodbye, now because there's too
many shout outs I gave they did it

1848
02:04:56,920 --> 02:05:00,079
again somehow, there's eighty nine all
right, Oh but it's okay. Oh

1849
02:05:00,159 --> 02:05:03,880
my god, I wanted there's a
lot. What do we got going on

1850
02:05:03,920 --> 02:05:08,079
this week? Grub We got gay
Mess mornings popping off for the rest of

1851
02:05:08,079 --> 02:05:11,479
the week. Yeah, I'll probably
find some more time for Mortal Kombat,

1852
02:05:11,479 --> 02:05:14,079
but we played some yesterday. I'll
probably get some more time somewhere along the

1853
02:05:14,119 --> 02:05:16,039
line. We got some quick looks
happening at some point this way. You

1854
02:05:16,119 --> 02:05:19,439
and Mike did a whole slew of
quick looks. We did ye. Disney

1855
02:05:19,479 --> 02:05:25,960
Illusion Island now on the site.
Quake two thirty x X. I'm gonna

1856
02:05:26,000 --> 02:05:28,359
check that. I'm gonna check that
bad Boy. Yeah, I think,

1857
02:05:28,439 --> 02:05:30,000
yes, I think I think everyone
would dig thirty x X. It's it's

1858
02:05:30,319 --> 02:05:35,039
Rogue Light very good. Uh.
We have perhaps a b Light club going

1859
02:05:35,119 --> 02:05:39,399
up tomorrow. Corrects right, right, Yes, that's right. We're gonna

1860
02:05:39,399 --> 02:05:41,359
figure I'm gonna figure something out.
I think I had an idea, but

1861
02:05:41,399 --> 02:05:45,359
I don't remember what now. We
will also have a voicemail dump truck with

1862
02:05:45,560 --> 02:05:50,159
or without a yes yes, mister
Backlar, Oh you no finish that thought,

1863
02:05:50,199 --> 02:05:55,840
and my hand was up to not
interrupt you like, uh, with

1864
02:05:55,960 --> 02:06:00,960
or without a funny wrestling man with
a guitar. Maybe not. We'll see,

1865
02:06:00,960 --> 02:06:02,640
we'll see, we'll see, Jeff
backlar, please, you had your

1866
02:06:02,640 --> 02:06:10,560
hand raised. We also, I
think I think, and Jan can back

1867
02:06:10,640 --> 02:06:15,680
me up on this, I think
we fixed the beast cast feed. Yes,

1868
02:06:15,760 --> 02:06:19,800
I think we didn't. Like I
think I looked at it the other

1869
02:06:19,920 --> 02:06:24,359
day. Uh, yes, sorry, this this morning and last night,

1870
02:06:24,399 --> 02:06:27,119
and it seemed to all be there. At least it was showing up in

1871
02:06:27,159 --> 02:06:32,119
my Spotify because I listened to it
all the way through once a week,

1872
02:06:32,560 --> 02:06:40,119
because that's just how much of a
freak I am. Yes, and we

1873
02:06:40,279 --> 02:06:44,840
are aware that there's a nice chunk
of legacy bomb casts that are missing as

1874
02:06:44,840 --> 02:06:47,239
well, but that's you're just gonna
have to be patient with that because it's

1875
02:06:47,279 --> 02:06:50,279
a manual thing. That Yeah,
it's gonna be a manual process. It'll

1876
02:06:50,279 --> 02:06:54,920
get fixed though. Yeah, I'm
I'm I've downloaded a good chunk of twenty

1877
02:06:55,000 --> 02:07:00,399
thirteen. We were thinking about where
I was at in twenty thirteen. Yeah,

1878
02:07:00,439 --> 02:07:03,279
seriously, I think, like,
just you know, just to let

1879
02:07:03,399 --> 02:07:08,840
everyone we just we're basically just changing
around where we host the podcast, so

1880
02:07:09,079 --> 02:07:12,119
it's a lot of back back end
work, but it's just so much better

1881
02:07:12,239 --> 02:07:17,800
for us. This one might give
us money. Yeah, this one my

1882
02:07:24,840 --> 02:07:33,000
sorry, sorry Italians. Yeah uh
we We will have an earlier upf this

1883
02:07:33,039 --> 02:07:39,239
week as well. I believe we
will be checking out more Balder's Gate three

1884
02:07:39,399 --> 02:07:45,199
multiplayer. I believe we'll be rolling
at ten am Pacific standard time. Just

1885
02:07:45,239 --> 02:07:49,079
works a little bit better for scheduling
stuff and getting stuff done before and after

1886
02:07:49,880 --> 02:07:58,279
later in the day. Bailey Myers, folks find you. I am Bailian

1897
02:08:37,560 --> 02:08:39,079
twenty thirteen, so I went my
Google Photos to look up where I was

1898
02:08:39,079 --> 02:08:43,039
in twenty thirteen, and I was
doing my movie themed engagement photos, which

1899
02:08:43,079 --> 02:08:46,039
got like, went a little bit
viral, and so I was like,

1900
02:08:46,039 --> 02:08:48,199
oh, I want to find those, so I have them somewhere. But

1901
02:08:48,319 --> 02:08:50,880
the way it's just to google it. And I googled it and I've found

1902
02:08:52,000 --> 02:08:54,039
someone did the exact same thing,
but not just like the same idea,

1903
02:08:54,199 --> 02:08:58,760
the exact same like movie posters with
the exact same poses, like the Back

1904

else did our stuff two years later,

1905
02:09:01,960 --> 02:09:05,520

bump. I'm I'm mad, you should,

time I took a photo I was

single Simpsons episode right in a row,

1908
02:09:16,199 --> 02:09:18,039
and I took a photo of the
screen during the Elon Musk episode, and

1909
02:09:18,079 --> 02:09:22,680
I posted about it on Twitter and
it went viral. And then someone this

1910
02:09:22,760 --> 02:09:28,439
year posted it again, my exact
photo of my TV and they're like,
